While many terrible things have happened in the past few years, one thing that has been somewhat promising is the rise in awareness of neurodivergence.

When the world is overwhelming and nobody else seems to understand, you always have funny internet pictures to fall back on. Below you can find just a small selection, but the sentiments that they share are definitely relatable to a significant minority.
