Early in 2023, I applied to join a group of mental health changemakers. Following my acceptance into the programme, I joined a WhatsApp group to facilitate communication among the cohort.
When it came time to introduce myself, I decided to share a personal aspect of myself by stating that I am neurodivergent. This discovery, much to my surprise, aroused the interest of several group members, who then enquired about what it meant to be neurodivergent.
Should you be unaware, individuals who are neurodivergent think, learn, and process information differently from those who are neurotypical.
