Pathological Demand Avoidance card

A card explaining Pathological Demand Avoidance in straight forward, non-medical terms. Helping people to understand the challenges of living with it.

The explanation reads “I have pathological demand avoidance, an autism spectrum condition affecting social interaction and communication. It can also mean I get lost in my imagination. My main challenge is that demands (you must/you need to/you have to) make me very anxious. It can look like aggression or being naughty, but actually, I’m panicking & please be patient, allow me to make my own decisions where possible & give me time to process change & and help me calm down if needed.”

The back of the card is blank. To add customised information to the back of your card you can purchase a write on sticker here. The white sticker comes with a clear sticker that can be used to seal it once it has been written.

These laminated, wipe clean, water resistant and durable, 110x80mm cards, have a hole punched in the top left hand corner to allow attachment to a keyring
