Em Rusciano

“Comedian and podcast host Em Rusciano has spoken of the ignorant backlash she received when she went public with her ADHD and autism diagnoses.

Trolls labelled the mother of three, 44, an ‘attention seeker’ and accused her of jumping on a bandwagon by saying she is neurodivergent.

Speaking on the KICPOD podcast on Tuesday, Rusciano said the reaction was ‘gross’ and will only ‘discourage’ misdiagnosed and under-diagnosed women from seeking help.”
