So um
Our listeners are very often interested in the journey of our guests.
So if you could talk a little bit about your professional and personal journey and what brought you to focus on both neurology and sleep disorders.
Yeah.
You know, a as a speech language pathologist, when I've consulted the schools and programs and a teacher would say, Um, this youngster comes in so dysregulated.
It it just seems I I was guessing at the time, but for many years I would just say, Well, how does he or she sleep?
And very often, of course, we would hear not so well.
So how common are sleep issues in autistic individuals versus the general population?
Sure.
Yeah, and you know what's coming to mind of uh I think so often
Um in a very simplistic way people think about, well, you're awake or you're asleep,
But you're really shifting states of consciousness.
Um, and you know, I didn't really raise this as something for us to discuss, but it it's there there must be phases or stages of moving into sleep and then coming out.
And I I remember very clearly a a young autistic girl's many many years ago that I consulted for.
Um, she was non speaking when she was awake, but she would sometimes speak
coming out of sleep.
Um and it sounded like more scripted kinds of things that were somehow stored in long-term memory in her brain.
But that shifting if if you could comment on that a little bit about sleep not being you turn the light on, you turn the light off.
Mm.
So you gave us that astounding number of about uh three.
