Diagnosed with Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) at aged 12 and writing this memoir at age 37, Julia Daunt depicts the ins and out of PDA and its symptoms, while maintaining a positive outlook on what is possible to achieve. Co-written with professional specialist Ruth Fidler, it covers how PDA impacts Julia’s life, including meltdowns, sensory issues and communication in relationships.
Including examples of school reports and handwritten letters, a chapter written from Julia’s partner’s perspective and even an example of Julia’s favourite recipe, this warm and personal look at living and thriving with PDA is informative and inspiring.
