What is Neurodivergence?
It's ADHD, Autism, OCD, schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, bi-polar, aspd, etc etc etc etc
“neurologically atypical patterns of thought or behavior”
So, it’s very broad, if you feel like it describes you then it does as far as we're concerned
Rules
1.) ableist language=post or comment will probably get removed (enforced case by case, some comments will be removed and restored due to complex situations). repeated use of ableist language=banned from comm and possibly site depending on severity. properly tagged posts with CW can use them for the purposes of discussing them
2.) always assume good faith when dealing with a fellow nd comrade especially due to lack of social awareness being a common symptom of neurodivergence
2.5) right to disengage is rigidly enforced. violations will get you purged from the comm. see rule 3 for explanation on appeals
3.) no talking over nd comrades about things you haven't personally experienced as a neurotypical chapo, you will be purged. If you're ND it is absolutely fine to give your own perspective if it conflicts with another's, but do so with empathy and the intention to learn about each other, not prove who's experience is valid. Appeal process is like appealing in user union but you dm the nd comrade you talked over with your appeal (so make it a good one) and then dm the mods with screenshot proof that you resolved it. fake screenies will get you banned from the site, we will confirm with the comrade you dm'd.
3.5) everyone has their own lived experiences, and to invalidate them is to post cringe. comments will be removed on a case by case basis depending on determined level of awareness and faith
4.) Interest Policing will not be tolerated in any form. Support your comrades in their joy!

That is a lot if self-doxxing!! You just posted incedible amounts of personal information, medical information and very intimate details about your entire life!! Please reconsider if you want to share this much info with complete strangers!
I'm talking about the [redacted] section in particular
it didn't seem that way to me because very little of that information is available elsewhere – I told her things I've not told anyone but my husband, and it didn't seem like it would be possible to doxx me with stuff not otherwise connected to my identity – and was in general enough terms to not feel particularly revealing, but I know I'm not in a great place for good judgement right now, so I deleted it
It's your info to do with what you please and I hope you get to a better place. I definitely do not want to discourage you from posting your experience(s). The devil with doxxing is in the details however and it's the sum of all the little details that paints a picture.

I posted this comment a few days ago and you're 100% correct about that.
