Man I Hate Posts About The Neurodivergent Experience That Try To Universalize It In Opposition To The

Man I hate posts about the Neurodivergent Experience that try to universalize it in opposition to the Neurotypical Experience. I just saw a post about how "neurodivergent people don't perceive early signs of hunger and neurotypical people do which is why neurodivergent people forget to eat" and a bunch of people in the comments like "whoamygod makes so much sense" but like, I am able to detect hunger at its early stages. I do forget to eat when I'm manic but that's because I'm distracted and don't notice it, not because I'm not able to perceive it if I think about it. Anyway the Neurodivergent Experience is not universal and one size fits all so stop saying stuff like "the Neurodivergent Experience is __" it can be annoying especially to people like me who have been told they're faking it their whole lives. Even something like "a lot of neurodivergent people have this" can go a long way to being inclusive.

I spent the day thrifting with my partner to start feminizing my wardrobe and we kind of did our own thing so we had a fashion show when we got home and YALL. One point my partner put my hair up a way I've never done and w the new clothrs when I looked in the mirror I saw the girl I've always wanted to be smiling back. I started crying from the euphoria
