- Our women will be sharing their own personal diagnosis stories today. There has been a recent rise in women receiving later life diagnoses for conditions like autism and ADHD, which have been missed throughout their childhood. Boys are diagnosed four times more than girls, and girls often end up being misdiagnosed with mental health conditions like anxiety and depression instead. Christine herself was misdiagnosed by her doctor when she was not eating due to her autism. Judi shares how she was diagnosed with dyslexia at the age of 23 through a powerful woman she met at work.

I absolutely love Judi. Love it when she's on the panel. She makes me laugh so much.
We need more programmes on this theme. It’s not talked about enough and it’s stopping people reach their true potential…
Sam Thompson has done a documentary ADHD and me I think it’s channel 4 it’s really good I was watching it my mam thinks I had autism I think think I have ADHD but it’s crazy how long the waiting list is on the nhs
Take meds bro
I’m not surprised by women being more likely to be diagnosed as neurodivergent later in life. I got diagnosed with autism aged 3 because I shared the same symptoms as my sister who was also diagnosed with autism aged 3. If it weren’t for her, I would have been one of those women diagnosed with autism later in life.
I am also someone who was late diagnosed in life (29) with both ASD and ADHD, even though I am still waiting for my official appointment with the NHS, after I became a mother and I found myself not coping like I used to. It's changed my life and finally made me accept and love myself. Much like what Nadia was saying, I did the exact same thing with the label 'lazy' and my 'depression' like Denise. As much as I appreciate this show, it's not enough. We need to talk more and bring more awareness for women on the spectrum :)
I would like to say a Great big Thank you to Loose women for doing one of their programs on this matter. We need more programs to discuss this subject as its extremely important & very relevant in this day & age.
We have recently found out that our daughter is Autistic & has other mental health issues & today's program, we saw elements to Christine's story which are very similar with our daughter's situation.
Thank you from my husband & I as we very much appreciate the fact the 4 ladies sharing their private stories with the public.
Judi is an amazing lady
I love love love this segment!
It hasn't stopped these lot reaching their potential...it's just about being at ease with who you are and why you are your own way.... Just wired differently and that's fine..they still get on.. irrespective and good on em!
Once you find out that you have a condition it certainly makes life easier…
Diagnosed monday with Level 1 autism. Awaiting my ADHD assessment. Its been AMAZING. Better understanding foe myself. To think iv been drugged on multiple heavy duty medicine when i didnt need it!!!
I went through exactly the same as yourself. I have Autism & AdHD. I got my formal Diagnosis in 2020. I have ADHD 2 which is Hyperactivity in movement & speech only. I am on 60mg of Lisdexfetamine. Which has completely changed my life for the better.
I was diagnosed with Autism in 2017 3 years later I got my other diagnosis of ADHD. I am 46 now.
I was diagnosed with aspergers syndrome at 21 and struggled all through school.
Umm that dunce cap thing is ridiculous. Wow!! Glad we have progressed from that.
Dyslexia sometimes you get charged for testing dont how much cost
My son who is 9 hates lables in clothes and certain fabrics shopping for clothes can be hard.
It just seems like everyone is getting an ADHD diagnosis these days especially in the celebrity world.
“Lots of adhd symptoms that can be very positive for a person”. Yeah, that’s not a thing, I’m sorry. I’m SO fed up with how appropriated adhd and autism have become within the general population. One of the main and most important deciding factors on whether or not a person has adhd, is how much it negatively impacts your life. If your “adhd” actually makes you super successful and has no negative impacts on your life, then you don’t have adhd, you’re just a normal person who is probably a bit scattered. Things like adhd and autism are considered disabilities for a REASON, they disable your life in certain ways.
I know they don’t mean to but they keep unintentionally not including Christine in the conversation. She will struggle to find the time to contribute if they don’t make the effort and have the awareness to include her in the conversation
Is the new celeb ailment? Sorry to trivialise it for those genuine sufferers
The women on the panel have all got a diagnosis. They are sharing their stories. Which is raising awareness for us who are not accepted & are misunderstood. I have Autism, AdHD, Dyscalculia & Dyspraxia. We are not sufferers. What we have isn’t an illness. Our brains are formed differently. When I share with people my diagnosis, I get “ we are so sorry” why? I am not ill. I would never say to a neurotypical individual, oh I am so sorry. Or refer them as Sufferers. You see , to us on the spectrum you are different, we could call neurotypical individuals disabled. But we really don’t see neurotypical people that way. We get misunderstood, abused & neglected. We look to people like yourself to help us thrive in a world we don’t understand. In my experience all I ever get is neglected & abandoned.
Well said we suffer from people not from our conditions
I don’t think people necessarily have adhd or autism I believe eveyone is on the spectrum… we have quirks in our own way!
That opinion is harmful and belittling to sufferers of both. It’s not a quirk that I cannot physically make myself pick a cup up and take it to the kitchen even when I’m getting up and going to the kitchen. It’s not a quirk when I’m having a total mental shutdown because I’m overwhelmed by the sound of electricity when my iPad is charging. It’s not a quirk that I cannot make myself even do things that I want to do. It’s not a quirk that my brain is so over-loaded that I cannot process anymore information. It’s not a quirk that eye contact is physically painful. It’s not a quirk that I forget to eat for 16 hours at a time. It’s not a quirk that I forget I have a drink because it is an inch outside of my peripheral vision, so it doesn’t exist in my brain. Self-harm stims are not quirks. Echolalia is not a quirk - a neurotypical person will not repeat the same word for 10 hours without a break. I could go on, but I hope you get my point. If you have one or two autistic traits, you can not even fathom of scale of being bombarded with hundreds a second.
Listen to autistic people and you might learn something. No, not everyone is on the spectrum.
🙄
Denise has ballooned
Oh I do t know about all these diagnoses. It’s a very specific diagnosis from a real professional. If you look at the facts we are all slightly on the spectrum.
No, people aren’t all slightly on the spectrum. I am sure you don’t realise that this very comment is actually Gaslighting us who are on the spectrum. Our brains are formed differently from a neurotypical person . ( someone without )
Not everyone is on the spectrum that is just aggnorance
@@user-qj5hv6gg5w no it’s not their was an amazing documentary on a while back about autism and if you break it all down all out quirks and odd ways defines autism it’s just how extreme it is and when it completely interferes with your life and separates you from the majority and you need specific help . Another one about how quickly certain professionals are quick to put the label on you without being qualified . That’s my point I’m far from arrogant I’m just stating facts , my point is everyone throwing it out there loosely is dangerous , people are going to start using it for every wrong thing they’ve ever done .
