This has been percolating in my #neurodivergent head for a while now...

I don't think the #autism #spectrum is an adequate way to view autism in the modern context of #neurodiversity.

I think there's a much broader neurodivergence spectrum that encompasses autism, #ADHD, #alexithymia, #RSD, #dyslexia, sensory processing disorder, etc etc.

Us #neurodifferent peeps are so often such an unseparable coagulation of many of the above, it's the only perspective that makes sense to me.

Thoughts?

I applied to a handful of Canadian Universities as a transfer student this academic year to prove to myself (mostly, my younger self) that I could do it.

I didn’t know if I would switch schools or if we could end up moving back to BC, so I threw my hat into the ring across western Canada.

The first acceptance letter arrived today - University of Victoria - my dream. 🌊 🐳 🏔️ 🏝️

🩵 I can’t accept it, but something about knowing I could go if I was able to heals part of my inner child that dealt with so much trauma trying to get through grade school as an undiagnosed autistic with learning disabilities 20-30 years ago. Time is healing ❤️‍🩹

In addition to being confused why stuff is broken, as someone experiencing #dyslexia I find it difficult to manually copy random numbers and text, especially when I don't know if I'm typing it correctly

Shout out to my homies on the #spectrum I am kinda liking being just a bit different these days, It sure use to suck. Now I just feel blessed.

#dyslexia #adhd with a sprinkle of whatever the pc name for autism is these days.

I have dyslexia too, but I don't say racist things (in public)

I have kinda just began talking openly about being on the spectrum. These days if someone is going to see me on a regular basis I inform them just because there might be some misunderstandings.

I don't process social cues the same way most people do.
For instance I would not know if a woman is flirting with me if she smacked me over the head with a mallet.

I may not be able to read social cues the way most do but I know good people when I meet them and I try to tell them. Its the good part about being on the spectrum. I am blunt and honest. If I care about you I am going to tell you.

oh and let me be clear. I am a pacifist. I talk shit because I am from Brooklyn and thats what we do, but I don't even like stepping on bugs anymore. I value life so much these days.

Research into MBTI® type, neurodivergence, and neurodiversity - A report from The Myers-Briggs Company [2024]

This seems to be an interesting and quite recent study that differenciates [in a very respectful way!] between participants that self-diagnosed and those who have an externally validated diagnose.
