I never thought about it this way, wow. As a neurodivergent person with plenty of disorders, I longed to become normal. I wanted to be like the rest and not question my existence and my sanity, but these apps that are meant for my betterment always felt like a forced ritual. I want to get better but I have to give myself more grace.

neurodivergency is the best thing on earth and im so tired of pretending it isnt
i sob over nothing! i hyperfixate for hours! im painfully bad with social cues!
i've wasted so many years of my life trying to mask, and for what???
what's so cool about being neurotypical anyway???
i am not something in need of fixing! i am real and whole the way i am!

it's like playing life on hard mode except hard mode is accepting every single side quest with reckless abandon and finishing main quests much later than everyone but also having the random skills and interesting anecdotes to show for it.
i'm sick of people acting like being neurodivergent is a deficit, it's low key the biggest life hack once you figure out how to harness it and work with rather than against it.
get diagnosed, learn and understand your condition, and own it - it's low key a flex.

it's been a few years but when I say it outloud it still feels unreal. but learning about my condition is good, and it helps me understand myself and the feelings and experiences that have become my new normal. but then I get this imposter syndrome because my symptoms have been better for a while- compared to how they were anyway- and it feels so unreal that I'm like, do I really have schizophrenia? logically, I know I do. and I have to get better about accepting this so I don't feel so disconnected when I think about it.
