197. Autism Meltdowns Explained: What Parents Are Missing — And What Actually Helps
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most parents have been told that autism meltdowns are a behavior problem — something to be managed, redirected, or disciplined away. Dr. Tony Ebel says that's the wrong framework entirely. In this episode, he breaks down what's actually driving meltdowns at the neurological level, why so many well-meaning therapies can accidentally make things worse, and what it truly looks like to address the root cause from the inside out. Through the real-time story of a patient named Mikey — a child who traveled from the UK to Chicago for intensive care — Dr. Tony brings this science to life in a way that is both hopeful and deeply practical.
