The Awkward Reality of PDA #PDA #Anxiety #PathologicalDemandAvoidance #Burnout #TaskParalysisAdded:
I focus a lot so far on how researchers look at PDA because I want to make it clear that part of the trouble we face when we're talking about it is that researchers are still working hard to understand things like PDA.
But that doesn't mean there isn't a gold standard for working through it or even diagnosing it at this stage. [music] And that, of course, can leave people struggling with PDA in the awkward position of knowing that they struggle with it due to an internal sense and then not having guidance on [music] how to work through it that is across-the-board standard.
Different therapists work with it very differently as a result.
