Leaving Be

It can be best to let PDA teens get on with things in their own way

Even if you’re itching to intervene

We PDA people need to find our own ways in life

Even gentle guidance will likely be demand triggering

Day 23 and Sparkles is making new neighborhood connections.

Apparently they live next door to a gingerbread man now.

No complaints so far, but I feel like this could get dramatic fast.

Sparkles says they are just being friendly.
We will monitor the situation.

Day 22 and Sparkles found roller skates. The sign says the skates are faster than Santa’s sleigh and… yeah. That tracks.

If you hear a tiny crash later, no you didn’t.

Day 19 and Sparkles is in their art era.
Paint out.
Easel up.
Vibes immaculate.
“What should we paint today?”
Sparkles started without waiting for answers.

Day 18.
We skipped Day 17 because ADHD said “not today.”

Sparkles was ready.
The photo was taken.
The post never happened.

Time is fake. The elf forgives us.

Now for today, actually Day 18:
Sparkles spotted that Santa’s shop is open and immediately switched into investigation mode. Magnifying glass out. Curiosity activated.

All days eventually lead here.

Day 16 and Sparkles has had a dramatic moment.

There was a sleigh.
There was confidence.
There was a miscalculation.

Now there is a wheelchair, some crutches, and a very strong belief that this is still going to be a great day.

Sparkles says the adventure continues. Just… seated.

I cannot recommend Kristy Forbes - Autism & ND Support more. She is an OG and, IMHO the queen in the PDA education arena. If you suspect (or know) you or your child is PDA, check out all of her courses online. They're affordable and worth every cent. (This is an unsolicited recommendation of Amy Grant, MS, CCC-SLP and AuDHDer)

Understanding PDA in Adults: Lived Experience, Nervous System & Everyday Life
Live Masterclass | Friday 30th January at 11:00am (AEDT)
---------------------------------------------------------------

Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) in adulthood can feel confusing, isolating, and often misunderstood, especially when the world thinks in terms of “won’t” instead of “can’t right now.” This masterclass is designed to offer adults with PDA, their loved ones, and helping professionals a deeply compassionate, non-pathologising understanding of the PDA experience.

Across three grounded, affirming hours, we’ll explore PDA as a nervous system based response rather than a behaviour problem, and unpack what daily life looks like through the lived experience lens. We’ll talk about autonomy, threat responses, masking, burnout, relationships, work, parenting, and why traditional “strategies” often backfire. Together, we’ll reframe PDA with language that explains and not blames, and build clarity around what actually supports safety, connection, and capacity.


+ This session includes:

+ Lifetime access to the masterclass recording

+ A downloadable slide deck

+ Full transcript

+ A comprehensive resource guide to support ongoing understanding and integration

+ Certificate of completion


Whether you’re an adult with PDA, supporting someone who is, or you work within neurodiversity affirming spaces, this masterclass will meet you gently and offer tools, validation, and insight to help life feel more possible.

Day 15 and Sparkles has taken the phrase “full moon” very literally.

Phases of the moon chart? Check.
Scientific accuracy? Questionable.
Cheekiness? Absolutely intentional.

The sign asks “Have you ever seen a full moon?”
Sparkles says you have now.

Day 12 and Sparkles is in their crafting era. Sewing machine secured. Focus face activated.

The sign says “Can you guess what I’m sewing today?”

Wrong answers only.
