Yep!
pSA: if you're an excessively bendy person and have a history of weird joint and muscle pain over the course of your life, check into Ehlers-Danlos and hypermobility. For ADHD and autistic types, there is significant overlap with having EDS, and our outcomes wrt covid are also consistently worse.
thinking of writing a paper about how “functional” disorders disproportionately target marginalized/stigmatized populations after reading a dozen papers about how functional neurological disorders have an inexplicable comorbidity w/Ehlers-Danlos
THE DISEASE WITH LIKE 100% OVERLAP WITH AUTISM??

We all experience the world differently...and that is ok...
Sensory seeking or sensory avoidance equally needs awareness as they both contribute to how we interact and communicate with each other and the world around us.

Changing the narrative around neurodiversity should include SEND.
Instead of
special educational needs
change it to
specific educational needs
Language is key to advocate being inclusive, appreciate diversity, and promote equity.
