[quote=Anonymous]Pp here - CBT is also not recommended for PDA. PDA is a misnomer. While currently under the ASD umbrella, it better described as a nervous system disability. PDAers have such a sensitive nervous system that their brain goes into fight or flight involuntarily - over things that most people don’t notice which is why it Appears behavioral. It’s not, it’s neurological, They can’t control their response in the moment.my child says when her PDA “anxiety response” kicks in her mind goes blank. She no longer has voluntary control over her movements. It’s total terror until the threat subsides. Check out PDA North America. Reduce demands, learn triggers together, meds help a bit, physical environment matters. It’s not easy but can get better using the right protocols specifically for PDA.[/quote]
