SUMMARY:You Don't Have to Talk About It: Understanding Emotions\, Identity\, and Overwhelm as an Autistic LBTQ+ Person
DESCRIPTION:Many autistic\, ADHD\, and queer individuals are told to “just talk about it” when it comes to emotions\, overwhelm\, identity\, and mental health. But emotional processing does not look the same for everyone. 🧠🌈 \n\n\n\nJoin Autism Edmonton for You Don’t Have To Talk About It: Understanding Emotions\, Identity & Overwhelm\, an affirming virtual learning session exploring the many ways neurodivergent and queer individuals experience\, process\, and express emotions. \n\n\n\nThis session will examine emotional overwhelm\, shutdown\, masking\, identity development\, internalized expectations\, and alternative ways of communicating and understanding feelings beyond traditional verbal processing. Participants will gain insight into how autistic and ADHD individuals may navigate emotions differently\, while also exploring the impact of queer identity\, sensory stress\, burnout\, and social expectations. \n\n\n\nThis learning opportunity is designed for autistic and ADHD individuals\, caregivers\, educators\, professionals\, mental health practitioners\, and allies wanting to better understand neurodivergent emotional experiences in a compassionate and validating way. \n\n\n\n📅 Date: Monday\, June 22\, 2026🕠 Time: 6:30 PM MST💻 Online Event🎟 Register here: Eventbrite Registration Page \n\n\n\nThrough Autism Edmonton’s internationally attended virtual learning platform\, sessions like this continue to create neuro affirming spaces where autistic\, ADHD\, and 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals can feel understood\, respected\, and supported in ways that honour their lived experiences. \n\n\n\n18+ or All AgesAll ages  \n\n\n\nVenueVirtual  \n\n\n\nAddressStreet Address : VirtualCity : EdmontonState/Province : AlbertaZIP / Postal Code : T5G 0X5  \n\n\n\nWebsite Linkhttps://www.autismedmonton.org/ \n\n\n\nTicket Linkhttps://www.eventbrite.ca/e/you-dont-have-to-talk-about-itunderstanding-emotions-identity-overwhelm-tickets-1988412443144?aff=ebdsoporgprofile \n\n\n\nTicket Description #1Free Ticket Amount #1Free  \n\n\n\nIndoor event or outdoor eventIndoors  \n\n\n\nType of eventNon-profit  \n\n\n\nIs this event presented by a College or University for students only?No  \n\n\n\nEvent ContactDouglas Parsons  \n\n\n\nEvent Contact Email Addresstraining@autismedmonton.org \n\n\n\nEvent Phone Number(780) 453-3571 \n\n\n\nFacebook Pagehttps://www.facebook.com/autismedmonton \n\n\n\nInstagram Accounthttps://www.instagram.com/autismedmonton
