 | #OTalk @OTalk_ Good evening #OTalk [REDACTED USER] on the account this evening. Do say hi even if you plan on lurking. If you have any questions about joining in just let me know. https://t.co/UCP1fAObc8 |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Its 8pm here in the UK so that means time for #OTalk, hosted by [REDACTED USER] Don't forget the house rules, but most of all enjoy the chat! https://t.co/b30iaduqTu |
 | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Hello folks! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Welcome #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Lurks always welcome and you might surprise yourself #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Ha ha -, multitasking is allowed!! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] But don’t Forget that # in every tweet otherwise you’ll end up on the naughty step #otalk https://t.co/P1bhlKIcHu |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Welcome #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] I think ableism is one that I often see. People see that I can handle a busy OT conference schedule every year... but I actually have to put up with a lot to attend these things because I love OT so much. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 1 #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] I made this comment because I read a lot of tweets from autistic attendees commenting about the autism conferences they were at in Nice and Singapore. But... I know I put up with a lot more when I attend the AOTA conferences every year. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] Another can be related to culture. For certain disabilities, caregivers/parents might not disclose their children having them and these parents might feel ashamed if they openly disclose. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] You won’t get in the transcript, and you can’t use it as evidence if you don’t use the hashtag! #otalk, it’s not being strict it’s just thinking of you! 😛 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @laurafcliff: [REDACTED USER] I think stigma is a major part of the social environment, it is often hidden though so isn't recognised. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] My guess is- because there is no one size fit all solution to this type of issue. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Can you give us an example Keir [REDACTED USER] #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] Hmm... I constantly have to prove people wrong that I am competent. Of course, I help change my students’ perceptions of what autistic individuals can do in the process. They get to see me in action in class and figure out how I overcome challenges to be their instructor. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] True- I think we should have a general blueprint... but then we also got to use our critical thinking to adapt to the situation at hand. #otalk |
| @kalessandram [REDACTED USER] I think stigma is so intertwined with our culture, we may lip service to it but dont challenge & , question enough. I think it causes people to opt out and remove their voices because of the impact of shame. So keeps perpetuating. #otalk | |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @laurafcliff [REDACTED USER] I see that with my cousin who has way more severe in terms of symptoms goes. Safety is a number 1 concern for that family. #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @laurafcliff [REDACTED USER] My family- I know it took 4 years for them to accept the good of me having autism- but that’s because I have accomplishments to prove them wrong! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 2 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] @pixiegirle I think so. We can help bridge society’s gaps in that regard. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Another form of stigma I sometimes see- some of us are not receptive to constructive opinions regarding identity first vs. person first issue. It is an issue that is going in for decades and some communities prefer IFL. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Have others experience this? #otalk does the service people are using stigmatised them? |
| @kalessandram [REDACTED USER] I think we are but i think because social environments its less tangible than physical environments its harder to challenge and change, it is perceived as being more subjective and personal when questioning and raising. #otalk | |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] Impact of not being open to hearing feedback on using IFL in certain situations- it is not a good representation of what we are supposed to be as a profession. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 3 #OTalk |
| @kalessandram [REDACTED USER] There is sometimes a sense of people making a choice to where they have ended up when needing services and therefore it is implied their need isn't as deserved as someone who didn't choose. Really unhelpful and depressing perpectives. Need to challenge #otalk | |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Stigma can also prevent people who need help seek help! #OTalk |

 | Sarah P. Hancock, MS, CRC ♿ @PsychRecovery [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] #Stigma is but a kind name for #Discrimination against those who live w/ Sx of #mentalillness. It's entirely social & environmental. It's worse among #MentalHealth professionals working in acute care situations bc they only get to see ppl at their worst. #Otalk |

| @kalessandram [REDACTED USER] Excluding people who are seeking support, preventing them from coming back to service #otalk | |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] We need to change perceptions that seeking help is not a sign of weakness! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] Or sometimes having preconceived notions about their students if they share that they need reasonable accommodations for school work. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @kalessandram: [REDACTED USER] Excluding people who are seeking support, preventing them from coming back to service #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Sexual orientation is another one. Sometimes individuals with disabilities are also LGBTQ+. They may experience double doze of stigma from society. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 4 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ My goal in my classrooms- I want my students to not only come away from the course knowledge they are supposed to learn, but also realize that I work hard to get to where I am today professionally. In a sense, I want them to reframe about autism narrative. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT We don’t need our service users to experience double whammies! #otalk https://t.co/HGWtJQLe6N |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ 15 minutes left guys!! #otalk https://t.co/dnuyQLzjgT |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ I know there are times when I comment about OT to autistic adults, they were wondering which side am I on? #otalk https://t.co/a3o5Fndtmi |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ ABA is actually a hot button issue in the autism community, for example. Many people are against it! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 5 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ Applied behavior analysis #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] I think I challenge stigma every day when I step into the OT classroom as an instructor. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ 5 Minute warning to the end of the official #OTalk hour... What are you take away thoughts? CPD action plans? https://t.co/sbiAQcePJX |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ I never experienced it. So I personally don’t want to join in the bandwagon until I know the facts and have experience with it. #otalk |
| @kalessandram [REDACTED USER] Yes if people feel more confident can have an impact but equally if feel will make an impact will increase confidence #otalk | |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ As an OT, I don’t want to jump into bandwagons too quickly in autism community goes. I don’t think that looks good on me. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Don’t forget that # in all your tweets so that people can see what you’re saying. #otalk |
| @kalessandram [REDACTED USER] We need to challenge, reflect and question and not assume. Cant do this as an isolated voice but collectively. Need to think about our impact and assumptions as part of this #otalk | |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Can We all thank [REDACTED USER] for hosting this evenings #OTalk an excellent topic and some really helpful comments... much to reflect on. So why not do that using our reflections logs? https://t.co/Lqc3VPeI2H |

| Sarah P. Hancock, MS, CRC ♿ @PsychRecovery [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] You're welcome. Language's important. Correct Dx also extremely important. Reason I was deemed "Tx resistant schizoaffective disorder bipolar type" was bc Drs misdiagnosed #HepaticEncephalopathy. OT can act as #PTsafety advocate by noting & reporting Dx/Bx inconsistencies #Otalk |
