Understanding PDA in Adults: Lived Experience, Nervous System & Everyday Life
Â
 Live Masterclass | Friday 30th January at 11:00am (AEDT)
• Recorded • Lifetime Access
• Slides, Transcript & Resource Guide included
Â
Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) in adulthood can feel confusing, isolating, and often misunderstood, especially when the world thinks in terms of “won’t” instead of “can’t right now.” This masterclass is designed to offer adults with PDA, their loved ones, and helping professionals a deeply compassionate, non-pathologising understanding of the PDA experience.
Â
Across three grounded, affirming hours, we’ll explore PDA as a nervous system based response rather than a behaviour problem, and unpack what daily life looks like through the lived experience lens. We’ll talk about autonomy, threat responses, masking, burnout, relationships, work, parenting, and why traditional “strategies” often backfire. Together, we’ll reframe PDA with language that explains and not blames, and build clarity around what actually supports safety, connection, and capacity.
