    Tricky thing about being neurodivergent is most people have no idea that they‘ve been suffering so getting insight into their own situation (even if they‘re not over the threshold) is going to do much good for their situation. Knowing is always better than not knowing (imo).

      Even when you are neurodivergent you can assess whether your life “works” or not. Social media and the idea to go get a diagnose just to know made it almost impossible (where I live) to get an appointment.

      Doctors aren’t even putting you on a waiting list anymore. The victims of this are the people who really don’t have their life in order and aren’t managing to get an appointment.

      And this really is following social media trends. Currently it is an ADHD hype, slowly merging into an autism hype.
