Have you ever wondered how your brain is different from an NT because you are Neurodiverse? I definitely have. My brain is wired differently so I think in different ways than NTs do.

Have you ever gotten into a car accident because of having a learning challenge? Or because of a vision problem? Or because you weren’t paying attention? I have been in 3 car accidents that were my fault. My first two happened three years ago when I was still getting used to driving with NLD. And the most recent one happened this year.

Have you ever wished you could be loved, supported, or advocated for more? Or felt like you wish others needed you or your help? I have felt these emotions due to NLD. Fortunately for me, I do have a supportive family that does advocate for me but sometimes I wish others outside my family would do the same. But how can they if they don’t know what NLD is? Aren’t aware of it? Or don’t know how to h...
