AuDHD: Navigating the Intersection of Autism and ADHD with Mattia Maurée | Episode 18

In this episode of the Black Sheep Playground podcast, I'm chatting with Mattia Maurée composer, poet, AuDHD coach and hypnotist. Mattia discusses their personal journey of living with both autism and ADHD. We delve into the overlap between these neurotypes, the impact of demand avoidance, and the difficulties faced in conforming to productivity culture and late-stage capitalism.

What we cover...

Intersection of Autism and ADHD: Mattia shares their experience living with both autism and ADHD, and the tension of needing both structure AND freedom.
Demand Avoidance: You know that feeling of resistance when something is asked of you? That's demand avoidance, and it's a huge part of living as an AuDHDer. We get into how it feels, and ways to work with your brain even when it's resisting you.
Communal Support: Neurodivergent folks need communal support, perhaps more than neurotypical folks. We get into how late-stage capitalism has isolated us, and why being neurodivergent in a highly individualist society is extra, super difficult.
Redefining Systems: How do we exist in as autistic and ADHD individuals in a world that often lacks understanding and support? It's tough, and society needs to change.
