What is neurodivergence?

Anybody whose way of thinking and experiencing the world varies significantly from most of the population.

It doesn't really say what you are, but rather what you aren't: neurotypical.

If you have a cognitive, emotional, or other psychological disability or diagnosis, this would all be included by the term "neurodivergence". The term is about the experience we share of being "othered", or "marginalized" because of the way our brains work.
