This is a recording of a webinar presented by Dr. Brian Chicoine on November 10, 2021. Dr. Chicoine is the co-founder and medical director of the Adult Down Syndrome Center in Park Ridge, IL. The topic of the webinar was self-talk. Self-talk is a conversation with oneself or imaginary friends. It can be a way for individuals with Down syndrome (and many without Down syndrome) to process information, cope with challenging situations, direct behavior, and counter boredom. Dr. Chicoine described the benefit and function of self-talk. He also discussed what a change in self-talk may indicate and how to address those changes.
