Autism Learns: Managing Anxiety & Mental Health
February 24, 2023 - February 25, 2023
An online learning series: 24th & 25th February 2023
Brought to you by the organisers of The Autism Show, we provide trusted and affordable online learning to parents, family carers and professionals who support children and adults on the autism spectrum.
While around 25% of the general population will experience mental health issues at some point in their lives, studies have shown that autistic people are three times more likely to be affected, with anxiety, stress, and depression commonplace.
This online learning series will provide you with the practical skills and knowledge to maintain good mental health in autistic children and young adults. You’ll learn how to unravel the causes of anxiety, how to spot the warning signs of delicate or declining mental health, and what you can do to help.
Learnings include:
- Recognising the warning signs of mental ill health
- Identifying and understanding stress thresholds
- What is anxiety and what can be the common causes of anxiety in autistic children and teens?
- Tips for preventing/minimising depression – what can you do at home and school to help?
- Why do ADHD and autism coexist so often and what are the similarities between them?
- What makes eating disorders different for autistic people – presentation, motivation, treatment needs
- Understanding self-harm in autistic people
- How you can support autistic children and teenagers to achieve a better night’s sleep
