Is neurodiversity contagious? (Part 3)
Short answer: No.
Longer answer: if your friends are neurodiverse….
I’m AuDHD (Autistic + ADHD) and it turns out most of my friends are neurodiverse too. I guess we’re just drawn to each other, maybe because we understand each other.
These days “everyone is getting a diagnosis” because we’re recognising it better. Once your friend is diagnosed, you might seek your own diagnosis.
It also happens when a mother takes their kid for diagnosis, or when perimenopause hits and all their coping mechanisms stop working.
Chances are if all your friends or your partner are neurodiverse, you might be too.
