What is considered neurodivergent?

258 views

It’s a term that’s being thrown around a lot and the definitions I hear seem to go from very broad to very specific.

To add to that, is epilepsy considered neurodivergent? Some sources say yes, some say no, and I’m quite confused.

ELI 5. Hey, you and I are different in some ways. What color are you eyes? What color are mine? See how my big toe is shaped? How is yours shaped? Are we both awesome people? Yup, we are different and we are both awesome. Did you know our brains can be different too? Some brains have different talents and weaknesses. Some people’s brains learn things quickly or more slowly. Other people’s brains remembering things better than others and other people’s brains can be forgetful. My brain struggles to remember names. Remember how many times I got yours wrong? And you? I’ve seen you pay attention to make super tiny detail on your drawings. That is neurodiversity.”
