Honest question from a psych researcher: your self-disclosure about neurodivergence. Is that a self-diagnosis or clinical. Ive seena huge uptick in the term usage, especially on internet forums. Might be a good study to explore it’s etymological evolution over the past few years. Are you staying that members of the instance or members of the mod team are made up of neurodivergent individuals? Feel free to PM me if you don’t feel comfortable answering here. I don’t mind asking in public since you self-disclosed and public is always a good place to show the least bias to people.
Thank you for for candor and self awareness in your response. Helps me synthesize ideas about possible future investigations. The broadness of the neurodivergent spectrum inclusive defintion is a good and bad thing. The term has a nice ring to it, but its broadness means that their are a wider variety of malingerers on the outer edges. As the edges get wider the more of that happens. I am more fond of direct identification of diagnoses instead of the conglomerated term. What are your feelings about self-identifying or being identified as neurodivergent? To clarify the question, do you find the label positive or negative compared to the label ADHD?
