Who here is parenting an ND child?

Has finding out their diagnosis also led to you or their other parent to a late diagnosis?

Any resources you’d like to share with the community?

    Not a parent, but I got diagnosed when I was 30 and it did help my mom get some insight in her own struggles and she suspects she might also be neurodivergent.

    The recognition you can get from talking about your experiences and struggles can definitely help other people either with diagnosis or just general understanding.

      How did your mum manage finding out after all those years? Did she pursue a formal diagnosis or any external supports?
