Autistic adults experience greater rates of anxiety and depression compared to the general population. Compassion-focused therapy interventions, aimed at promoting self-compassion capabilities, have shown efficacy in improving mental health outcomes in autistic and non-autistic samples suffering from self-criticism that contribute to difficulties in emotion regulation. We explored the experiences of autistic adults during a brief one-week online self-compassion exercise to evaluate it's feasibility and acceptability through self-report, experience sampling, and parasympathetic activity measured via HRV.

Objectives: To examine how embedding an illustrator in the process of co-producing resources to support shared decision-making (SDM) can enhance communication between patients and healthcare professionals (HCPs).
Methods: Three case studies were identified involving high-risk medications where the utility of effective visual communication resources is key to SDM due to the risk of information being misinterpreted leading to potential serious adverse effects. An iterative approach was adopted to the phases of co-production, where the Illustrator acted as a conduit between patients and specialist knowledge of the clinical team.
