Unmasking neurodivergence: ADHD conversation grows
Original: Unmasking neurodivergence. # adhd # neurodiversity # neurodivergent # mentalhealth # ymhc
Attention is turning to the practice of 'unmasking' among neurodivergent people, particularly those with ADHD. The discussion centres on how individuals drop the coping behaviours used to hide their traits in social and work settings, and what that means for mental health. It sits within a broader conversation about neurodiversity, self-acceptance and the pressures of masking, with advocates arguing that greater openness improves wellbeing and public understanding.
Why now: Growing public interest in neurodiversity awareness and the mental health costs of masking ADHD traits.
