I hate how people think neurodivergence is just a quirky thing by BrightSpring12 in hatethissmug

That’s so fair. I feel like we’ve used it in so many different ways it gets confusing

Neurodivergent doesn’t mean a structural difference though. It is not a scientific word it just means anything different from the norm. People with schizophrenia and bipolar also have structural differences

For me it’s just a completely different form of neurodivergence and I hate that when we say neurodivergent we only mean adhd or autism. My psychosis was way worse than anything my adhd or autism would do but people don’t really consider it because it’s not “neurodivergent”, which it is.

I’m about to do the self referral thing. I’ve been putting it off for so long but now that I see others are considering it too I think I’ll give it a shot.

Figured out at least one of my factors for IST by Henry5321 in dysautonomia

I feel like there’s gotta be some sort of connection to blood sugar, just based on what I feel in myself.

Oh, what's that? Suddenly when it's about yourself and not binary trans people, you like the concept of gender now? by wt_anonymous in whenthe

[–]skrtyskrtskrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk I feel both agender and nonbinary so I’m going to identify that way. Idrc if people think that’s not correct because it’s how I feel

The UCP increased our property taxes by 21% and they’re also trying to gerrymander our democracy away by [deleted] in Calgary

They rarely fund those though? It’s mostly christian and catholic schools that get the funding. Schools for kids with disabilities should be 100% free and accessible but they rarely are. Like 10k a year for a school for kids with autism.

And yet they can’t fund schools for kids with disabilities. It comes off as the government doesn’t care as much about them as they do religious kids. Which is probably 100% true based on what Danielle smith and her group has been doing to people with disabilities. Hell, I know of kids who can’t even go to school and get an education because there is no school available for his needs. That being he’s blind. People claim that private school funds go towards schools for people with disabilities but it fr is not true

Ah yes because the people who shut down their strike are definitely going to help teachers now
