Like most of the Neurodivergant individuals my age, I was never diagnosed.

For this reason, I was very lucky and fortunate that my older brother and peer group kept an eye out and kept reminding me to pay attention to my surroundings.

Nowadays, I use my learned skill of hyper awareness of my surroundings, combined with my innate over-analysis of problems to anticipate problems before they develop.

Neurodivergence is a gift, allowing you to see things that neuro-normative people don’t, as well as a curse. If you overcome the curse through discipline and training, as well as support of those around you, you will end up as better person.

If you keep saying “I’m on the spectrum so I don’t have to adhere to social norms”, you will only ever be neurodivergent.
