Neurodivergent and on…the struggle bus 🚌
I am neurodivergent and on…the struggle bus. The struggle bus is how I describe a lot of things when they are really affecting me. For example things like my mental health, autism and DPDR / Dissociation. The ‘struggle bus’ is just a weird concept made up by me but I think the idea and phrase came to me because I always feel so stuck when I’m overwhelmed - like I’m stuck on a bus that refuses to pull over at any stops.
