Episode notes

Tell Them Apart - Book Series 2 of 8. Avoidance. Hypervigilance. Meltdowns.

Trouble sleeping. Shaky sense of self. Here's the problem: autism and trauma

share almost all of these - which is exactly why so many people get missed or

mislabeled for years. In this episode we walk through the overlap zone feature by

feature, and reveal the key that starts to separate them: the same behavior can

run on completely different engines. We also look at why developmental history -

what was there in childhood versus what appeared later - is one of the most

powerful clues you have.
