I’m neuro-divergent and I have aphasia.

The former I don’t consider a mental health disorder. It just indicates that there are aspects of my brain function that is atypical but not ‘wrong’ per se.

The latter I do consider a mental health disorder, because there are functions that are broken. There is something wrong. In my case, due to head trauma.
