Neuroaffirmative accounts
My hand-picked collection of various accounts, which are all neuroaffirmative. These accounts cover a wide variety of issues and most importantly, are all neurodivergent led. Being neurodivergent is a difference in neurotype, not a disorder or something that has gone wrong.
