There are more neurodivergent staff than managers. So why are the majority of companies spending more on management training than neurodiversity training?
Don't say your ADHD or autism is a superpower! Don't say "neurodiverse" when you mean "neurodivergent"! Don't self-diagnose! Don't. Don't. Don't. /sarcasm
ADHD was first described in 400BC. ADHD couldn't officially exist in adults until 2008. ADHD couldn't officially exist with autism until 2013. Move faster, medical establishment!
Genuine question: who gets to decide who's qualified to diagnose ADHD autism? I've had speech and language therapists, nurses, psychiatrists, and all sorts but I want to know who decrees whether someone is "qualified".
Look it's me! With a brand new talk.
“But you haven’t drowned yet, so why do you want to learn how to swim?”
“But you haven’t drowned yet, so why do you want to learn how to swim?”
I don't usually ask for irrelevant stuff on here, but today I'm asking you to vote for Joe Coleman in the Webby Awards, because his website is ace and he's a truly wonderful human being. Thanks. vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/…
You know all that hoo-hah about the school photo excluding kids with complex needs? The bigger story is that many of these photos exist. They didn't take two photos, those kids aren't able to go to school.
What a great question! I dunno the answer though. I suppose being 2e makes me good at a lot of stuff.
It’s time to talk! 🫵🗣️ 2 in 3 football fans have struggled with their mental health. So we've teamed up with @VinnieJones65, @ChelseaFC and @samaritans to encourage fans to #TalkMoreThanFootball
What would help you navigate the post-diagnosis cliff? What kind of support would you like to see for adults with a shiny new #autism diagnosis?
My personal theory about #AuDHD (not that anyone asked) is that it's a separate condition from plain #ADHD and standard-issue #autism. theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…
Had the best time today participating in a fireside chat for @Heidrick and their team. They ask the BEST questions. ♥️
5 myths about autism. #AutismAwarenessDay #AutismAcceptanceDay #ActuallyAutistic
It's #Autism Acceptance Day. This year, I'd like to celebrate those doing good work. Who do you think is doing a good job? It could be an advocate, a big organisation or someone you met at a bus stop. I want to hear about them!
Good news for you! My potential client pulled out of a retainer contract last minute. ☹️ Sad, but it happens. I wish them well. So, now I have availability to work in April+ With you? Need a Creative Virtual Assistant? See bio for more info & link 🖤 Please share/repost 🖤
So much to unpick in this. Why would you "limit language"? Some of us are hyperlexic, it sort of goes with the territory. And why would you use peers as an example for how an autistic should behave? Why isn't it the other way round?
UK’s black children ‘face cultural barriers’ in accessing help for autism and ADHD theguardian.com/education/2024…
@rachelmtrimmer Yeah and that’s how you know they’re not consciously doing the work of dismantling neuronormative culture. Autistics are children or service users.

@rachelmtrimmer The answer depends on the country. In the UK the NICE guidelines list who is appropriately qualified, this gives a list of professions and also states there must be experience and expertise in the area. Also for Autism and MDT is needed.
@rachelmtrimmer for formal use it needs to be a psychologist but i will die on the hill that peer review is one of the most consistently accurate was to dx autism lol
@rachelmtrimmer I’d check NICE guidance for facts on who can/can’t assess but ideally, it should be a multi agency team, especially for children
@rachelmtrimmer Very valid question for lots of areas of disability. I once came across two TAs in North Wales who proudly shared they had been trained by their LEA EP Service to use a restricted "EP only test" to assess for dyslexia on his behalf. 🫨
@rachelmtrimmer and they point blank R.E.F.U.S.E. to test for Neurodivesity over 12 years under Glasgow and Clyde health board.
This year at #CampDigital we're pleased to welcome Neurodiversity Consultant @rachelmtrimmer! Rachel's talk will explore what it's like to be autistic, why autistic people are an asset, and how to ensure they're able to work at their best. Tickets at: shorturl.at/alsMT
@rachelmtrimmer I sit on both sides of this as an ND clinician. People need to remember that there are diagnosable physical and mental health conditions that cause disability that still mean people can achieve, work and have families alongside, affected by, and despite the condition.
@rachelmtrimmer Same “you are obviously successful, what difference with having a label make to you?”
@rachelmtrimmer And why are they content with us just managing? We should be thriving!
@rachelmtrimmer "Define managing"...
Given so many autistic people, ADHDers and other neurodivergent people experience mental health distress prior to assessment and diagnosis, to the point that it is a hugely recognised 'pathway to diagnosis', should speak to how well we are or aren't coping
@rachelmtrimmer just denying people clarity in their life because they don't understand and were told by the television that everybody is faking it to get drugs... so ignorant of how easy drugs are to get, docs aren't working with us at all... youtube.com/watch?v=0UB_ii…
@rachelmtrimmer Yes. Some of us managed but it took unhealthy maladaptive behaviours that impact quality of life, life opportunities and expectancy which we can be a bit freer of with recognition, protection under the equality act and possibly medications.
@meljwiseman @rachelmtrimmer A diagnosis doesn’t MAKE you disabled. I think people get confused about this.
@meljwiseman @rachelmtrimmer and all of that is more manageable with self awareness
@meljwiseman @rachelmtrimmer A diagnosis helped my daughter make sense of her life and herself. It makes accessing help easier, it give language to feelings & difficulties. It doesn’t mean she’s incapable, but it does mean she knows who she is
