Listen "The Body & Mind: Neurodivergence and Chronic Illness"

Episode Synopsis

Why do so many neurodivergent people also experience chronic illness symptoms like dizziness, fatigue, hives, or joint pain? In this episode of Telos: A Neurodiversity Podcast, host Aeris explores the chronic illness “triad”: hypermobility, mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), and dysautonomia (especially POTS).We’ll look at how these conditions overlap with autism, ADHD, and anxiety, and how lived experience, research, and neurodivergent voices are reframing the connection between body and mind.
