idfk maybe it's autism, there are just too many signs - does anyone else feel like they're autistic when their high and now the mask has come off? doubt

anyway just travelling by myself for once so I'm vlogging and watching my shit back and I am NOT normal, there is no way other people talk to me and think damnnnnnn he's functional - when was someone gonna tell me I talk like I'm tongue tied, what the fuck??

besides, how can I be autistic if I bullied the autistic kids growing up (the only people who would hang out with me willingly)

I think there is a bit too much going on with me for it to just be anxiety... but pretty sure it is add, maybe combination add and autism

Everyone I tell who I think I have add is like noooo haha you're too cool and successful and I'm like ok, but everything is an uphill battle, and I need drugs to study?? pretty sure my mum has ADD too among other things...

ofc this could all be the long island ice tea talking, shit smashes

Very much so. There's a book club on it coming up, but several of us have read it recently and would be (presumably) down to discuss at any time.

What is Neurodivergence?

It's ADHD, Autism, OCD, schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, bi-polar, aspd, etc etc etc etc

“neurologically atypical patterns of thought or behavior”

So, it’s very broad, if you feel like it describes you then it does as far as we're concerned

Rules

1.) ableist language=post or comment will probably get removed (enforced case by case, some comments will be removed and restored due to complex situations). repeated use of ableist language=banned from comm and possibly site depending on severity. properly tagged posts with CW can use them for the purposes of discussing them

2.) always assume good faith when dealing with a fellow nd comrade especially due to lack of social awareness being a common symptom of neurodivergence

2.5) right to disengage is rigidly enforced. violations will get you purged from the comm. see rule 3 for explanation on appeals

3.) no talking over nd comrades about things you haven't personally experienced as a neurotypical chapo, you will be purged. If you're ND it is absolutely fine to give your own perspective if it conflicts with another's, but do so with empathy and the intention to learn about each other, not prove who's experience is valid. Appeal process is like appealing in user union but you dm the nd comrade you talked over with your appeal (so make it a good one) and then dm the mods with screenshot proof that you resolved it. fake screenies will get you banned from the site, we will confirm with the comrade you dm'd.

3.5) everyone has their own lived experiences, and to invalidate them is to post cringe. comments will be removed on a case by case basis depending on determined level of awareness and faith

4.) Interest Policing will not be tolerated in any form. Support your comrades in their joy!
