For neurodivergent (autism, ADHD, HSP, SPD, synesthete), non-male people. A key trait, sensitivity, has been overlooked because it's associated with women, a population underrepresented in medical studies until 1990s (Saini). For those of us diagnosed later in life, it usually follows a massive breakdown or the verge of suicide. If we want to correct this trend, we must stop pathologizing differences. Billions of brains on this planet, we do not need to conform to the "one true model" of existence.
