Episode 48 (year 2): Neurodivergent (ND) Brains vs. Neurotypical (NT) Ones
Have you ever wondered how your brain is different from an NT because you are Neurodiverse? I definitely have. My brain is wired differently so I think in different ways than NTs do. And I tend to overthink things and make them bigger, more difficult than necessary. I have gotten better at not having them bug me as much though because that doesn't do any good.
