#who act like the second you say anything positive about being nd you're 'romanticising' a 'serious illness'

[helendamnationx]

Just sharing Dodie’s Rainbow, as it’s a Neurodivergent Mood(tm):

I was brought up in a line, 

but I seem to walk in circles 

it's getting hard to navigate, when every map was never made for me 

and I thought it would feel good 

to understand why I was different

but my title just talks over me, I never even asked to be this way. 

 But to say that I'm a rainbow, 

to tell me that I'm bright; 

when I'm so used to feeling wrong well, 

it makes me feel alright

#Dodie #Music #just. ok. look. I will feel many ways about this song over time #right now what I'm focussing on is all those people - some of them neurodivergent! #who act like the second you say anything positive about being nd you're 'romanticising' a 'serious illness' #Sometimes it does in fact suck! Even if you're mostly fine and in the right circumstances and mostly happy with yourself #there will be times when it sucks big time #times when it's isolating or damaging #but also the most painful neurodivergencies have bright spots. something to be grateful for #at the end of the day. That's you! It's part of the beautiful person you are! #to say that I'm a rainbow. To tell me that I'm bright. When I'm so used to being wrong well- it makes me feel alright #so please step inside my soul #i'd love to watch you gasp #you'd understand in minutes and I'd like to think you'd miss it #'cause so would I
