Aradia, Cheryl, and Patrice talk about their experiences dealing with and/or avoiding the world of medicine as autistic non-men. From not knowing what help is accessible to falling through the cracks to finding our ancestral anger at generations of mistreatment, we hope this conversation helps other autistic people recognize that these struggles are common and systemic.  

Aradia, Cheryl, and Patrice talk about the many different kinds of community that humans experience. Some are harmful, some are helpful, some last for a long time or a short time, others can be found online or in nature. As autistic humans we often struggle to find communities that work for us, but it is a quest we all have to engage in some way.

Aradia, Cheryl, and Patrice talk about meltdowns. What they are, what they aren’t, different ways they can be triggered, various ways they can be expressed, and strategies to help our nervous systems recover in the aftermath.

Aradia, Cheryl, Patrice, and Matthew talk about the current state of the conversation around Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria in the online autistic community. Real rejection isn’t the same thing, and that nuance often gets lost, so we’re here to talk about the different flavors of rejection and ways that we can interrupt or redirect the RSD spirals when they do actually occur.  Better on Mute by Sophie Powers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWf6hAYV87Q  Work with us by scheduling at the links below: Aradia: [coming soon] Cheryl: https://cherylrettig.ca  Patrice: https://www.patriceriley.com Matthew: https://www.theautisticcoach.com  Autistic Peer Support Coaching Collective: https://www.autisticcoaches.com Theme music: https://bluedotsessions.bandcamp.com/track/vinyl-couch  A https://www.foxandravenmedia.com production Check out other FARM podcasts Black Girl From Eugene: https://www.spreaker.com/show/black-girl-from-eugene  Used2Sew: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/used2sew--6285838  Wheel of Time Spoilers: https://www.spreaker.com/show/wot-spoilers-podcast

Aradia, Cheryl, and Patrice talk about the experience of growing up as undiagnosed autistic women, and the ways in which that has informed how we negotiate life. We touch on generations of missed girls, hobbies that were palatable, accessing anger, masking in the transition into adulthood, what defines a standard, shame, empathy, and so much more.
