Author and journalist CJ DeBarra fearlessly explores the raw realities of heartbreak, love and sexuality as a neurodivergent queer person
About this Event

Hitting their mid-thirties and still uncertain about relationships, sex and love, CJ DeBarra launched into a quest for understanding.  Growing up in West Cork, Ireland, CJ knew they were ADHD, but its implications remained mysterious.  Drawing on academic research and personal experience, they explore the raw realities of heartbreak, love and sexuality, and delve in to the complexities of desire, the impact of distractions during intimacy, the role of dopamine and the lure of unconventional sexual experiences. They also investigate why the diagnosis rates are so low for women, transgender and non-binary folk, why this matters, and why we should be demanding better healthcare.

Please note this event may contain mature content.
