Thank you so much for including diagnoses that are not just ADHD, autism, and learning disabilities. The symptoms of these are the focus of most ND spaces. I accept that common disorders will have more people sharing their experiences but honestly, I didn’t know I was included in neurodiversity until very recently. Actually, this morning was when I found out. There is not much out there on things like acquires neurodivergence, which incudes mental illnesses that weren’t present at birth, trauma disorders, personality disorders, brain injuries, medical illnesses that affect brain health, and more, as you said. I have a trauma disorder, a mood disorder, and I suffered two mild TBIs (one organic, the other inorganic) that may have contributed to or caused some of my experiences. I wanted to feel included in ND spaces but didn’t because the content was focused on neuro-developmental experiences in so many groups. I don’t stim/fidget. I didn’t have issues in school due to curriculum or social expectations. I don’t think I have sensory issues, and I don’t have spen is interests, and I was bullied for things like medical issues and being the new kid, vs standing out in the sense the more typical ND crowd did. I was even told that the term and spaces weren’t for me, and that I didn’t have real struggles since I can function. The problem is, while I can meet expectations and I have no issues with social skills, functioning at full capacity makes my mental and physical symptoms worse. For a long time I thought healing would mean being the person I was born to be before traumas changed my life, but that isn’t the case. So I thought I was just very bad at being neurotypical, because I don’t feel authentically welcome there, either. I mask just enough so that the benefit outweighs the damage now. I don’t think I will ever be able to unmask full time because I wouldn’t be able to pay my bills and meet the needs of my household. But when we look at the whole umbrella, we see just how few true neurotypicals exist. I’d say it’s far from the majority of adults. This drives home the urgency behind changing how the societal infrastructure runs, and highlights everyone we need to include in these changes. I want others like me who didn’t feel included to know that they are and hope to somehow get to a point where I can have a platform.

I agree, and disagree. Neurodivergence does affect how you work. It will affect how you precise the world, how you act, and operate. It gives you limits, and strengths. It is neutral. Not better, or worse than a neurotypical brain So there are gonna be something’s those who are neurodivergent just can’t do, and will always deal with. These are things you just can never get rid of they effect people forever. However it definitely isn’t an excuse, and most in the community don’t claim it as such. Most believe that while you do have different limits you still should treat people well, and try to be as healthy as you can. Which due to being neurodivergent means you’ll have a different road. You’ll need different accommodations, and to learn things others might not need to. That’s what being neurodivergent means Most aren’t saying that’s just me they are saying it’s a part of me so I have different limits, but I can do great things too. So accept I’m different, and help me when needed is basically the message

Like just because your forgetful here and there doesn’t mean you have ADHD. You’d need to be forgetful a lot, and have several other symptoms at least a few that affect you a lot to have it

Brain damage cause people to function in ways that may not be typical. All types of abuse can cause brain damage, even being hit on the head accidentally or being in a car accident. People experience all kinds of minor accidents throughout their life and can end up with brain damage; that is why huge amounts of people is likely to fit in this spectrum, with them having a variety of symptoms. It’s not victimization, some people can’t function in life and they get abused with being called lazy, worthless, loser etc., if people know what they have and how it works, they can try to work with it instead of trying to function in the normal ways and keep failing because they’re not normal.

You should be allowed to feel your feelings, and talk about your experiences. You shouldn’t have to worry that those around you will assume you’re just playing victim. You are allowed to have emotions, and not like the positions you are in This is not playing victim. Being neurodivergent isn’t bad or good it’s neutral. Having a brain that works differently means you have different limits, but different strengths as well. People who are neurodivergent need acceptance, understanding, and accommodations. We still can live happy lives, and should be held accountable. Just be understanding of the symptoms that’s it pretty much

No. We need it because it helps explain that some people have brains that work differently to the extant that it has a noticeable effect on their lives. Disability has a bunch of conditions under it that are all different, but is still a valid term Neurodivergent isn’t made to affect how people diagnose themselves at all. Just to get one big umbrella label for talking about having a different brain To be neurodivergent you need to have a brain that works noticeably different. You can’t just say “I’m neurodivergent” and not add a label or say “I have x condition” without explaining why, or not knowing why you are that. You need to do deep research on medical sites, analyze yourself, your life, your interactions, etc. And you need to listen to people who have the same conditions. Then hopefully if your lucky you can talk to a doctor enough to get a diagnosis Sadly not everyone can get one. So some people do have to self diagnose. This however should not be treated as a 100% thing just like how realistically doctors aren’t 100% either. And most mention they haven’t been medically diagnosed
