Why Is Traveling Difficult as a Neurodivergent Person? A Clinical Psychology Podcast Episode.

Content section starts at 24:50.I simply cannot put this psychology podcast episode off anymore. On the day that this podcast episode goes out I will be returning from a wonderful long weekend away with my parents and my godmother to a little country escape in England. It will be a great weekend because the destination sounds good, we’ll be doing a lot of things and I enjoy spending time with my family. Yet this doesn’t hide the fact that I am nervous, anxious and in the days leading up to the holiday, I am a little dysregulated because of my autism and signs of ADHD. I am really nervous about the break away from my routines, if there will be enough stimulation for me in the evenings and even though the holiday is only for four days, it is still a massive change for me. Autistic people don’t always do well with change. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, we’re going to be exploring why travel is difficult for neurodivergent people, what some of the challenges are and most importantly, how can we support people with neurodivergence to thrive during traveling. I’ll also discuss implications for aspiring and qualified clinical psychologists. If you enjoy learning about ADHD, autism and real-world problems, then this will be a great episode for you.In the psychology news section, you'll learn how crime and compassion are interconnected and offer people hope, how humans and animals share taste in sounds, and if there are seven types of hyper-arousal in mental health conditions.LISTEN NOW!If you want to support the podcast, please check out:FREE AND EXCLUSIVE 8 PSYCHOLOGY BOOK BOXSET- https://www.subscribepage.io/psychologyboxsetSign my petition- https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/764524Gamification of Autism: A Guide to Clinical Psychology, Psychotherapy and Mental Health- https://www.connorwhiteley.net/gamification-of-autism Available from all major eBook retailers and you can order the paperback and hardback copies from Amazon, your local bookstore and local library, if you request it.
