I didn't know there was a Neurodivergent Pride Day, I think that's pretty cool. It fell right between my birthday (June 20) and when I got officially diagnosed with ADHD (June 6). I always knew I was somehow "different" but never suspected ADHD because I only knew about symptoms in boys. When I found out some things I do like fast-talking infodumping and forgetting to swallow when I talk are ADHD symptoms and some of the stuff I do for workarounds is called ADHD masking, I always just called it "fitting in" and assumed that fitting in was the same for everyone. What kind of confirmed it was taking my boyfriend's allergy medicine that he gave me when I was out of mine, not realizing his is powerful (he has lifelong flu complications and needs to take very strong stuff), he told me it'd make me energetic but in reality it relaxed me a little and made me the most focused I'd ever been. I do pretty good with my workarounds and fear medication because I don't want to lose my artsy and creative side, but the way I felt when taking his allergy medicine was kind of nice. I found out the ingredient in his allergy medicine is very similar to ADHD medication. I also feel so blessed to have a boyfriend and friends that are accepting of my differences. My family are very wonderful and doing their best to be accepting but they had a lot of misconceptions they believed (but willing to listen when I debunked them). I remember my younger brother saying "it's ironic that the one who turned out to have a mental illness is the most successful one, Victoria is the last one I would've suspected" (referring to how I was the first to move out, the first to own my own home, and the first in my family to go to college, have a degree from Dartmouth) but he was surprised when I explained neurodivergence doesn't mean someone isn't going to be a success. It took me until age 27, almost age 28 to get a diagnosis but I'm so glad I did. Most people are unaware of the struggles I face behind the scenes.

Does this include folks with Dyslexia? I know some folks include us in neurodiverse events but some groups are spaces for folks on the autism spectrum. I totally understand if that is the case.

Amazing video I just thought you would like to know there's a learning disability called dyscalculia which is like the number version of dyslexia when a person has trouble with maths.

The people who crushed Siena castellons self esteem should be embarrassed by the way they treated her now that she's famous 😏👍

The thing I don't understand is why an amazing gifted young woman like Siena would be bullied nearly her whole life and what's worse is the teachers made it believe it was her fault Siena should be so proud of herself 🥺❤👏

Just loved it!

Ooh nee…alsjeblieft zeg. Door al die “Prides” drukken jullie jezelf juist in een hoek. Jammer.

Ik vind dit filmpje moeilijk te volgen door het geluid. Kun je het ondertitelen?

Both of you are wonderful and this was an uplifting conversation to watch.

Meer ruimte voor neurodiversiteit, genderdiversiteit, ik ben blij dat NL hier aandacht aan geeft, zelfs door ZonmW-subsidies.
