It really is a thing...even if it's not widely recognised medically...

At just 8 years old, Trevor’s life changed.
What started as a simple strep infection became something far more complex — sudden OCD, anxiety, and tics.
After two years of misdiagnoses and trial treatments, he was finally properly diagnosed with PANDAS.
With the right care, Trevor got his life back — back to school, back to sports, back to being a kid. 🧡
Look. for root causes.

Misophonia Might Be a Brain Regulation Disorder

Misophonia is more than just an aversion to sound—it reflects a pattern of emotional and cognitive inflexibility.

Individuals with misophonia struggle to switch between emotional tasks and often report rigid thinking and persistent negative thoughts.

A new study found that these traits are not simply side effects of anxiety or depression but may be central to the condition.

The results suggest misophonia may belong to a broader class of neurocognitive conditions defined by inflexible attention and emotional control.

Hot off the presses - Sony has launched a new PlayStation Family mobile app, designed to let parents manage their kids’ game time without needing to interact with the console directly. It’s similar to Nintendo’s Parental Controls app, which is a good thing. The app can guide you through the process of adding a child account and then gives you options such as setting time limits and content restrictions, shows what and how long your kid has been playing, and lets you manage spending and social features.

Hormones influence every woman’s mood, energy, and wellbeing, but for neurodivergent women, the impact can be profound and life-altering.

- Puberty can magnify emotional dysregulation
- Menopause may unravel long-built coping strategies
- Conditions like PCOS are more common in autistic women, adding painful cycles, irregular hormones, and heightened mood symptoms

Despite this, the interaction between hormones and neurodivergence remains largely invisible in medical and psychological research. Too many women are left without the understanding, support, or treatment they need.

Recognising and addressing these blind spots is absolutely essential in having a healthcare system that finally takes women’s neurodivergent health seriously. Read more over on our blog - https://bit.ly/AGNhormones
