Parenting a Neurodivergent child (beehaw.org)

Who here is parenting an ND child?

Has finding out their diagnosis also led to you or their other parent to a late diagnosis?

Any resources you'd like to share with the community?

@TechyDad Welvome to the not-so-exclusive club! I am actually working on a formal #diagnosis. I recognize certain #challenges in my life — many of which I’ve battled my entire life — that I really want to improve if I can. Clutter. Piles. Demand avoidance. Anxiety. The panic of deadlines. Social #anxiety.

Of course everyone’s path is different. But if you do have challenges that bother you, don’t overlook the chance of getting help. #actuallyAutistic #AuDHD

I've got to ask, I'm still figuring this whole Fediverse thing out- is your user account hosted on Mastodon or Lemmy? This comment was posted to the Neurodivergence community, and your account comes up as a Lemmy account, but then it's implied that it's really coming from Mastodon (and I had no idea hash-tags and the @ symbol would work across both).

@Mummelpuffin This account is on a #nastodon host. So if you’re seeing it on #kemmy then I’d offer, “Welcone to the #fediverse!”
