We're all different and I'm going to own it and I'm a lot more sort of comfortable in my own skin for me personally.
Ever thought about what it truly means to be neurodivergent? In this episode of 'Autistic Voices' on UK Health Radio, Evalynne Charmer chats with linguist and neurodivergence coach Sylvain Ruthenberg from his home in Ireland. Together, they dive into the unique experiences of living with autism, ADHD, and hyperlexia. Sylvain shares his journey as an 'Adaptive Autist', offering insights into the challenges and joys of embracing one's neurodivergent identity.
The conversation spans a wide range of topics, from the therapeutic benefits of ice baths to the intricacies of Education, Health & Care Plans (EHCPs). Evalynne and Sylvain also tackle the often misunderstood aspects of friendships, relationships, gender, and sexuality within the autistic community. One memorable moment comes when Sylvain declares, 'We're all different and I'm going to own it', highlighting the episode's core message of self-acceptance and celebrating individual differences.
