So that is what I do.
Yeah, there are several definitions out there and then there's some sort of informal definitions and um
I I have to be honest, I feel like it sounds like a terrible name.
It's one of those psychological quote unquote disorders like borderline personality that just doesn't really maybe it does describe the issues, but it just sounds so negative.
So w I will try my best to explain it uh in my understanding and the way that I came across PDA in my practices by accident because
I had a client come in about five years ago and I just couldn't figure out what was going on with him.
So I had to do a really deep dig into the research to find out that there is a atypical presentation and profile of autism called PDA that we don't really talk about in the United States and that's not in the
DSM as a diagnosis.
It would have been considered a diagnosis under the old DSM, the DSM four under PDD NOS or sort of alternative.
Autism or atypical autism.
Um, but my understanding of the definition of PDA and what I go with in my practice is that
ПДА из субтитров Autism.
That in some ways is high functioning and in some ways is low functioning.
That's categorized by
People who resist and avoid ordinary demands of daily life.
Because they cause intense amounts of anxiety and pressure.
And these are folks that are on the autism spectrum, but
In some ways their social communication skills.
Are stronger
And they're better at mimicking and masking and acting neurotypical.
