Episode notes
The honest answer, for a lot of people, is:
it's both. In this episode we move past either/or and into the reality of
co-occurring autism and trauma - including why being autistic can increase
exposure to trauma in the first place. We map the two directions of influence
(how autism shapes the trauma response, and how trauma colors autistic traits) and
look at what the evidence says about doing trauma-focused work when both are in the
room, and how to think about the order support should happen in.
