Ep 20 - Neurodivergence and common comorbidities with Leah Heale - Taboo Topics Part 2
Neurodivergence can also come with high occurrences of other conditions and complexities, these are referred to as comorbidities.
Today we discuss the most commonly occurring conditions - what they are, how they appear and how to spot them. Covering both mental and physical health conditions, this can seem daunting and overwhelming but, as they say, forewarned is forearmed, and, in Leah's own words, understanding these conditions helps us change the statistics and management for our children and those in the future.
Leah talks to us not only from her experience running Heale Collab, but also from her own lived experience and shares some incredible knowledge that we can bring into our observation of our own children.
