Pathological Demand Avoidance & Oppositional Defiance Disorder - Understanding the Difference

Pathological Demand Avoidance and Oppositional Defiant Disorder are commonly mixed up. While in many ways very similar, they're different conditions and require different approaches.

In this episode I look closely at both PDA and ODD and examine the similarities and differences between the two - such as PDA being a part of the Autism Spectrum where ODD is not.

I also look at managing both conditions as a parent and how to support these neurodiversities.

You may have heard of Autism, Pathological Demand Avoidance, and other associated neurodiversities, but do you actually understand what they are, and more importantly, WHO they are?
Autism., Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA), and other neurodiversities are, while widely known, sadly misunderstood. The purpose of this channel is to raise both autism acceptance and awareness by helping to educate with understanding and looking at all facets of autism such as Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), ADHD, Mental Health, and other related topics.
I am a father to a beautiful autistic and Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) daughter. My channel is very personal and I'm very open about both the joys and challenges of life with a neurodiverse family and parenting Autism and Pathological Demand Avoidance. Thank you for watching!
