    This is an ongoing project as part of a book I'm working on with SallyCat's PDA to help explain PDA behaviors in part through the lens of trauma.

    We believe that the current understanding of Fight, Flight, Freeze, and Fawn didn't encapsolate the range of behavior for PDA individuals, and that the realization will speak to how all humans react when they go trough trauma.

I am trying to find out more about PDA as my asd diagnosed daughter I strongly suspect has it and none of the parent guides of how to parent asd are working for us. I literally read them and am like no way will she accept this. I have found PDA only just coming more spoken about and this is great to get a first hand experience being talked about, it's great to understand from someone living it how I can in turn help my child.
