Creating a Life Around Your Special Interests
Special interests are a fundamental part of how many neurodivergent people engage with the world, providing joy, structure, and a sense of purpose. Rather than suppressing these passions to fit societal expectations, we can create fulfilling lives by integrating them into our careers, social connections, and daily routines. Embracing special interests without guilt or pressure to monetize them allows us to build meaningful experiences that align with our natural ways of thinking, learning, and expressing ourselves.

The Joy of Info-Dumping: Why Sharing Our Passions Should Be Celebrated
Info-dumping is a joyful and meaningful way for neurodivergent people to share their passions, but it is often misunderstood as excessive or socially inappropriate. Rather than being a flaw, info-dumping is a valid form of communication that allows for deep connection, self-expression, and the exchange of valuable knowledge. Embracing and normalizing info-dumping can help create more inclusive spaces where neurodivergent individuals feel heard, respected, and free to engage with the world in a way that feels natural to them.

Neurodivergent Joy is Resistance: Finding Happiness in a World That Others Us
Finding joy as a neurodivergent person is a radical act of resistance against a world that tries to suppress our authentic selves. Embracing our special interests, sensory experiences, and community allows us to reclaim happiness on our own terms, free from societal expectations of productivity and conformity. By prioritizing joy, rest, and self-acceptance, we assert our right to exist fully and unapologetically, creating a more affirming and inclusive future for ourselves and others.
