Title
Twice Exceptional Neurodiversity: Giftedness as a Form of Neurodiversity & Its Co-Occurring Friends
Description
So often we talk about neurodiversity in silos—autism, ADHD, dyslexia—but we don't often explore giftedness itself as a form of neurodiversity, or how it overlaps with other neurotypes. My own experience navigating giftedness alongside OCD has taught me so much about the complexity of the human brain and how our strengths and challenges are often inextricably linked.
