During lockdown, many psychologists and therapy sessions moved online. But while telehealth was positive for some, it proved problematic for people like Issy.

Research collated by four Australian universities has questioned the "anti-social loners" autism theory

"In January, my expectations for the future were hugely different … and where my goals may have previously been a certain score — now I just want to get through." "It doesn't feel like an appropriate therapy environment because I'm in the same space all the time and [it's] harder when you aren't walking into a therapist's office," Issy said.

ABC should dump Paul Barry to restore ‘integrity’ of Media Watch | Sky News AustraliaSky News Digital Editor Jack Houghton says the ABC should replace Paul Barry as the host of Media Watch to avoid having a “militant activist” host the show.\n\n“Media Watch as a premise has value, but it is completely undermined when you put a militant activist at its helm,” he said.\n\n“They should put somebody in there with a little bit of integrity who is OK to point out the mistakes of the ABC.”\n\n“It would make for a much better program and they would be able to restore a little bit of integrity.\n\n“I think right now having a man like Paul Barry in that position it is just untenable, and I think he is probably feeling the heat.”\n\nWhile Mr Barry does on occasion point out the mistakes of the ABC, his show dedicates significantly more air time to criticising News Corp.\n\nSky News host Chris Kenny said Paul Barry’s Twitter feed was “puerile” and what you would expect of a “19-year-old green-left uni student”.\n Houghtontweets TheRealPBarry What a yawn. Houghtontweets TheRealPBarry From a bloke who works for the most partisan media outlet ever seen in Australia Houghtontweets TheRealPBarry Mr Houghton should go fist himself. Imagine thinking the ABC give a rat's arse what he thinks.
