Mental Health Matters: Why Individuals with Autism and Learning Disabilities Are Often Overlooked

  • Résumé

  • Mental health struggles are often misunderstood, overlooked, or ignored when it comes to individuals with autism and learning disabilities. Too often, professionals focus only on the disability itself, failing to recognise conditions like depression and anxiety, which may present differently.

    In this episode of Voices of One Fylde, hosts Sian Edmunds, Rebecca Carter-Lindsay, and Marilyn Booth explore:

    ✔️ Why mental health issues in people with autism or learning disabilities often go unnoticed.

    ✔️ The real-life impact of being ignored and the challenges individuals face.

    ✔️ How families, friends, and support workers can advocate for better mental health care.

    ✔️ The need for professionals to look beyond the diagnosis and truly listen.

    Mental health is just as important as physical health, and everyone deserves to be heard and supported. Join us as we discuss how to break down barriers and ensure that no one is left behind when it comes to mental well-being.
