Neurodivergent Meaning, Symptoms, Types Support

Introduction
What does being a neurodivergent mean? Can you be
neurodivergent and function aptly in day-to-day
life? Are you struggling in social situations and
finding it hard to cope with crowds, bright
lights, or loud noises? There is an underlying
cause that leads people to act in a way that
diverges from the norm, and it is completely
acceptable! An umbrella term named
neurodiversity that includes different
variations of sub-categories is equally important
to look at. Under this, you should know the
meaning of other terminologies before delving
deeper into knowing who is a neurodivergent.

  • Neurodiversity is the understanding that natural
    variances in the human genome cause different
    thoughts and emotions to arise in different
    brains. An individual is not neurodiverse a
    group of people is.
  • Neurodivergent A person whose brain differs or
    diverges, from the statistical norm. A
    Neurodivergent individual has a less typical
    cognitive variation such as Autism, ADHD,
    dyslexia, dyspraxia etc. It talks about an
    individual person who might fall in any age
    category.
  • Neurotypical A person whose brain is in line or
    does not differ from the statistical norm.
  • Neurodiverse A group of people with different
    types of brains.

What are Different Types of Neurodivergence?
Neurodivergence can be observed right from
children to adult, neurodivergent individuals.
Depending on their gender, race, and culture,
neurodivergent people express their conditions in
different ways, and some neurodivergent people
(such as autistic people or those with ADHD/ADD)
may conceal their neurodivergent traits in order
to conform to societys expectations of
neurotypical behaviour this is known as
Neuronormative behaviour. For those with ADHD,
high levels of stimulation are both thrilling and
perplexing.

Common Signs and Symptoms of being a
Neurodivergent
Finding it difficult to read or write. Not
responding to their names. Dealing with
clumsiness. Having trouble adjusting to social
situations, crowds, bright lights, loud noises,
or unexpected noises. Trouble concentrating or
remaining still. Trouble maintaining social
skills. Finding it difficult to convey their
emotions in social situations. Lacking the
ability to have an effective communication.

How to Support Someone Who is a Neurodivergent?
1. Listen Listening to them can really help them
feel respected and cared for. This would reduce
misunderstandings and help them with their
confidence. 2. Communicating in ways that are
Helpful Giving neurodivergent people their time
and tools to deal with the need to communicate
goes a long way. Most of them might prefer
written communication over a phone call or
face-to-face conversation. 3. Every
Neurodivergent Individual is Unique Even though
they have the same underlying condition,
neurodivergent individuals might have quite
diverse personalities and interests.

4. Avoid using value-based Labels
Differentiating the manner in which they are
identified by using terms like high-functioning
and low-functioning for an autistic individual
may hamper their well-being as it makes
assumptions about a persons level of functioning
based on how much they act like a neurotypical
person. 5. Do not Underestimate them People who
are neurodivergent often stand out or appear
different due to prevailing conditions, they have
exceptional qualities for out-of-the-box
thinking. 6. Treating them alike It is critical
to respect them and their circumstances while
offering an arm of understanding, similar to how
roots of a tree with different structures allow
the tree to function and stand tall.
