"Their nervous system's been dysregulated for such a long time, everything gets thrown off, including the circadian rhythm. So, it makes sense that someone might need to be eating at times they didn't before, and that includes overnight, in order to keep their blood sugar at a decent level so that way they can sleep", says Laura Hellfeld. Laura joins this episode to discuss sleep differences in autistic people, being an independent nurse, and creating safe spaces.
