It's Neurodiversity Celebration Week so to celebrate, us Neurodivergents have got our Neurodiverse heads together to discuss the language used to describe our Neurodivergence! Get it? Basically, what do all of these words mean?! Is there right and wrong when sharing our own lived experiences and explaining our ADHD? If you prefer 'Neurospicy' or refer to yourself 'as ADHD' rather than having or experiencing the 'disorder'/ 'disability' / 'condition'... Dr James Brown and I celebrate you! The language police can do one! Say what you like, just try not to be a joy thief and show respect to the differences within our diverse community! You say Saltburn, I say Saltbae! Yep, that happened! :)MASSIVE THANKS to Dr James Brown for joining me for another ten(ish) minute micro-interview and to all of The ADHD Adults for their support and  their amazing charity ADHDadultUK.

It's TITBIT 2! I just about managed to cram 40minutes of GOLD from CJ Debarra into this 10(ish)minute micro-interview with the LEGENDARY Author of Neuro-Queer: A Neurodivergent Guide to Love, Sex and Everything Inbetween.Masking is something so many of us experience. CJ lived a lot of their life behind three different masks until coming out as Queer and Non Binary, and really exploring their Neurodivergence in their 30s.  Growing up in West Cork, Ireland, CJ knew they were ADHD, but its implications remained mysterious. In their book CJ fearlessly explores the raw realities of heartbreak, love, and sexuality, and the complexities of desire, the impact of distractions during intimacy, the role of dopamine, and the allure of unconventional sexual experiences. CJ sheds light on alarmingly low diagnosis rates for women, transgender individuals, and non-binary individuals, urging readers to advocate for improved healthcare. THAT'S A LOT TO CRAM INTO TEN MINUTES HEY! Which is why in this TITBIT we focus on Neuro-Queer Allyship and Neurodivergent Dating; in particular dating safety for ADHDers. Particularly those of us that either don't see those warning flags, or mistrust our judgement, so wait for them to turn a particular shade of red! It was an absolute joy to speak to this Leopard Print LEGEND! MASSIVE THANKS to CJ for sharing so many pearls of wisdom and for all of their amazing work!If unidentified ADHD left you feeling like an Alien UNITE WITH OTHER ALIENS at ADHD AF Alien Nation, an ADHD Awareness raising Live Show invading 14 UK Cities this Spring/Summer to connect local ADHDers with Intergalactic, Hun-tastic Extravaganzas!
