#neurodivergence — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #neurodivergence, aggregated by home.social.

  1. I wrote a blog post, perhaps my last? It's about autists living in an NT world — what it looks like from the inside.

    It's called "A Life Inside", and you can read it here: carelesstalkblog.wordpress.com





    Maybe a boost, too? 🙏

  2. What the fuck is your strategy if you have to go to a wedding and all of your system's earning mechanisms ar like: "we do not want to be there!" ??

  3. I said it before and people on Threads got BIG MAD but I'm going to double down:

    "Going to therapy" is not a one size fits all and fixes everything solution. And the amount of MEN ON THE INTERNET who are now weaponizing "therapy speak" and telling women like me to "go to therapy" just as a means to shut me up ARE REALLY STARTING TO PISS ME OFF.

    STOP RECOMMENDING THERAPY TO EVERYONE. IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT. SOMETIMES IT MAKES THINGS WORSE. AND IT CERTAINLY MAKES THINGS WORSE WHEN IT'S USED AS A SMOKESCREEN BY ABUSERS.

  4. J'ai écouté le début du podcast Vivre avec le #tdah m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL

    Je trouve le style épouvantable - ça me semble mal écrit même si je vois l'effort d'accessibilité, et le dialogue sonne faux à mon oreille - mais j'imagine que pour d'autres ça peut le faire bien

    Sur le fond pour moi c'est trop pro médical et prescription de médocs, limite scientiste mais intéressant à partager que ça vulgarise un état de la science à jour, avec des études et méta-analyses récentes (24, 25, 26)

  9. Mutual Aid Request Roundup 10-Sept-2026

    I am writing from Indonesia, where I refuse to make survival conditional on someone having enough savings to endure an emergency. Public responsibility and mutual aid belong in the same conversation. We can demand the resources people deserve while moving what we have towards those asking now. Read the appeals, contribute directly, and carry an original request into a circle that can help fund it.

  14. Today is a good day to remember that there are neurodivergent people who cannot alt text because of their neurodivergence. Harassing them, chastizing them, or excluding them bc they can't alt is, was always, will always be ableist.

    "How do I know if they're ND?'

    U don't. So assume good intentions.

    Thank u for coming to my tief talk.

  19. Connais-tu ce genre d'expérience d'être seul-e à vouloir nourrir de **vrais** liens, dans un groupe ?
    Je donne régulièrement mon num en espérant que les gens m'envoient un mot pour qu'on puisse continuer à échanger ... et souvent ça marche pas. Avec mon phénotype de mec je peux comprendre que ce soit pris pour de la drague ou une tentative commerciale remarque.

    Autre symptôme je suis "démesurément" (d'un point de vue neurotypique, même si y'a que de la #neurodivergence en réalité...) affecté par les intentions souvent inconscientes des gens et les formules conventionnelles.

    Sujet commun : prêter des intentions, à tort ou à raison.

  20. Mutual Aid Request Roundup 13 Aug 2026

    Military vehicles near Monas, fences around Jakarta's malls, officials insisting it's all Independence Day rehearsal and not a crackdown in waiting. A disabled Indonesian Muslim woman writing from Jakarta traces the fencing back to dwifungsi ABRI, the US-backed Cold War doctrine still shaping how Indonesia disciplines its own people, and connects it to the same logic running Gaza's occupation and Washington's deals with Tehran. The people named in this week's requests need that support regardless.

  21. Will @StorieswithaWill ·

    Beginning my search for non-ai TTS website readers, the only one I found so far was on fdroid- it's called eSpeak (which is a Really cool older project- totally synthesized speech), but it's hard for me to understand or listen to for long.

    I guess I want the type where it's actual human voice recordings of each syllable, then reassembled. Sorry I forgot what it's called.
    TIA!

    Check out these 2 new books in our collection combining #DisabilityStudies & #LiteraryStudies
    Christie Collins & Saul Lemerond edited this collection of 19 own-voices essays on writing with #neurodivergence & #chronicillness & #disabilities

  24. The biggest problem for those with invisible disabilities is not to be believed. And because we aren't #believed, we aren't #trusted either.

    This applies to all ND people, but also those with physical, but invisible, conditions, such as #MS, etc.

  25. Hello everyone,

    #OnlineAutscape2026 “Evolving Autistic Space Online” starts at 6pm GMT today (Friday 6th February), and if you don't already have a ticket, you can still join us!

    There is no set registration deadline; we'll keep registration open until the event starts, and even beyond (so don't worry if you're late). Upon registering you'll automatically be emailed all the information you need.

    The event runs from 6th to 8th February. We will be using Zoom webinars for the presentations and a dedicated Discord server for our social space. The main page for the event is at:

    autscape.org/2026/online/

    Booking your ticket is quick and easy. Please visit:

    autscape.org/2026/online/regis

    We're very proud of our incredible international line-up of presenters! The programme schedule is here (and you can switch it to your local time zone):

    autscape.org/2026/online/sched

    But, as always, presentations and workshops aren't all there is to #Autscape. There will be also al sorts of more informal discussions and socialising going on, in text, in the social space on Discord.

    Autscape is a genuine #AutisticCommunity event, organised by and for #ActuallyAutistic people. As is Autscape's way, everything is optional: there is never an expectation to participate, you're very welcome to just come and read/observe. And it's #AutisticSpace: being and acting autistic is accepted, welcomed, and even celebrated. But non-autistic people are also very welcome, provided they respect this.

    As many of us #autistic people tend to get stuck and struggle with “doing stuff”, we hope that this reminder gives some of you the prompt you needed to join us. See you at Autscape!

    On behalf of the Online Autscape organising team and the Autscape board,

    Martijn Dekker
    Acting chair, The Autscape Organisation

  26. CW: cults and deprogramming

    Episode 1 is out now! I talk to Delia Tetelman about deprogramming from a Christian cult, non-coercive education, and a neurodiversity perspective on mentalization.

    Available on most podcast apps!
    CW for cults, emotional and physical abuse, high control religion, and neurodivergent trauma.

  27. CW: Mentions of politics

    Would anyone be interested if I ever made a Substack account for my writing? It'd be for shits and giggles basically, I don't wanna feel obligated to write articles all the time. I'd probably write about politics and possibly esotericism. All of my articles would be free unless I get good traction on there.

    For more background into my politics, I'm an independent from the US with a slight left lean. I'm also a bi AuDHD woman, so I'm able to bring a healthy dose of diversity into what I do! I think universal healthcare, inflation and privacy are the biggest issues in the US currently. That said, I'm also very passionate about neurodivergent advocacy and acceptance. I think neurodivergence is the biggest DEI issue that few talk about.

  28. Hello lovely Masto peeps. I’m writing a long read about how the increased awareness of autism and neurodivergence generally is changing travel for people with autism. The very different experience, the way companies, airports etc should/can step up, etc.

    If anyone here has experience ir insights on either side & would be willing to talk, please do shout! Thank you.

  29. HE’S JUST LIKE ME FOR REAL 🤣🤣🤣

    One of my crushes sent me this and it basically hit me in the damn soul and I started crying laughing and had to share it here.

    If I don’t know you or trust you, I would rather do ANYTHING ELSE than acknowledge that you’ve just flirted with me, but believe me, I know, and believe me, I’m Fucking Panicking. Often for YEARS. OOOPS 🤣

    I do really like this guy, though…

    "Aidalla on erilaiset aivot. Hän on ryhtynyt aktivistiksi, koska haluaa muutosta siihen, miten autisteja ja neurokirjon ihmisiä kohdellaan ja miten heihin suhtaudutaan. Aida haluaa nähdä maailman, jossa neurovähemmistöön kuuluvien on helpompi olla."
