In this episode of The Autism ADHD Podcast, we explore how the nervous system's survival responses (Fight, Flight, Freeze, and Fawn) shape the experiences of neurodivergent children—and ourselves as parents, educators, and therapists. Learn how recognizing these responses can transform challenging behaviors into opportunities for connection and growth.
What You'll Learn
- Why neurodivergent individuals often experience chronic nervous system hyperarousal
- How to identify the four survival responses in children and in yourself
- Practical strategies for supporting regulation and creating safety
- The importance of co-regulation before attempting to change behaviors
