Neurospicy social experiences.

To all my colleagues in Beds Talking Therapies who describe themselves as neurospicy or neurodivergent. I am working with a young female client who has put the following questions together and she would really value your responses. If you can, please take some time to share your experiences.

1

At what age did you seek a diagnosis (if you have)?

2

Do you ever feel like you are being ‘too much’ around other people?

3

How do you make conversation when meeting new people?

4

How would you feel/ react if you went out with one person for food/drinks and they were more interested in talking to the strangers next to you rather than talking to you?

5

Do you get easily tired over small tasks? If so, how do you manage a social life?

6

Do you ever feel judged by your diagnosis? If so, what makes you feel judged?
