Happy International FASD day!

The S is for Spectrum. The DSM- based recognition focus is on neurobehavioral disorder associated with pre-natal alcohol exposure (PAE & that's the F for Fetal).

The long-term effects extend to other systems, may have biomarkers depending on timing of exposure.

Awareness helps reduce stigma, increase inclusion. If you see red shoes, clothes this is a welcome sign for asking about #FASD #FASDawarenessMonth #RedShoesRock

#TagDesAlkoholgeschädigtenKindes: Schwangere denen der Verzicht auf #Alkohol schwerfällt, können sich mit dem #BZgA Online-Programm „IRIS“ unter http://iris-plattform.de kostenlos, anonym und persönlich unterstützen lassen. #FASD

It's September! FASD awareness month. We support with the established#RedShoesRock wearing red this month, and celebrating strengths. #FASD #PreNatalExposure #FASDawarenessMonth

Sugar and alcohol labels warning:
How the long shadow of drink giants pushes public health and sugar labelling into the shade
“... an extraordinary case study in the American-style regulatory sabotage used by food and drink companies to fight consumer protection that risks their bottom line”. The "cosy relationships between governments and lobby groups are a cancer on our democracy”

Ok I don’t know where else to share this, my partner is diagnosed with #Autism. He’s worried about having kids because of the heritability of the condition. But I don’t think he’s #autistic and I don’t know how to tell him that… I think he has #FASD. His family DRINKS a LOT. I wouldn’t usually even think to bring it up but it’s affecting our future

Does anyone know media that represents kids with #FASD, without focusing on that as the main topic

It should be

-on middle grade level
-Available in German
-Available as audiobook, movie, and/or comic. Basically, anything that's not mainly reading

I'm looking for something like Percy Jackson except with FASD instead of ADHD and dyslexia

Just listened to Lidia Segura (https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6431-6587) giving an engaging lecture on training the trainers in #FAS / #FASD prevention at #LxAddictions22. Worth the trip to #Lisbon…

Mal so in die #neurodiverse Ecke gefragt: jmd hier mit Erfahrungen im Bereich #FASD #pFAS unterwegs und an Austausch zu dem Thema interessiert? Überlege, da das Thema dann doch sehr speziell ist, nen anderen Account zu öffnen, um den Rest der Follower dann nicht mit Zeugs zu überfahren, was sie evtl nicht tangiert/interessiert oder was sie evtl auch nicht sehen wollen...

Ein wirklich wichtiger Thread:

RT @orgelelch@twitter.com

Der 9.9. ist der " #Fasd -Tag." 🧵 in Deutschland kommen derzeit 1% aller Kinder mit fetalem Alkoholsyndrom zur Welt, 2 weitere % haben diskretere Schäden durch Alkohol. Die beiden 9er des Datums deuten darauf hin, dass eine werdende Mama 9 Monate lang zwei Personen versorgt.

I've heard great things about #fzf, but after watching a few videos illustrating its features and usage, I fully agree. I'm going to replace #fasd with fzf and see how it goes. 🤞🏼
