interesting link to something many of us have experienced

Hi, nats,

Two thoughts on this.

First, we weren't clear on the meaning of "neurodiversity," so we had to look it up. We're not big on political correctness, but that's a topic for another thread. Anyway, the Wikipedia article on neurodiversity focused largely on autism.

Plurality and other atypical self-concepts could certainly qualify as neurodiversity in the broader sense, but we don't think it will be commonly included anytime soon. And it will be difficult for us to feel recognized as "neurodiverse" until this happens.

On a more MT note: Gaslighting was a tactic used by the "person" responsible for our adult SA. In some ways, the gaslighting was more harmful than the physical aspect of what happened to us.
