KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Everyone processes information differently, and it's hard to believe there is such a thing as neurotypical. Learning more about how you process information and developing a greater understanding of yourself and your loved ones is essential.
- Diagnosis of neurological conditions like autism, ADHD, and RSD can be challenging to recognize. Some symptoms might be so much a part of everyday life that it becomes harder to identify.
- Mental health services are often not accessible for those without financial means, which can be very disheartening and lead to people being unable to access the support they need.
- Assessments such as online quizzes may help you gain insight into certain conditions and how they may affect you.
- Knowing more about yourself can lead to feeling more expansive, compassionate, and loving towards yourself and your previous self. It is important to find ways to understand yourself better to have a greater sense of connection with your authentic self.
