Neurodiversity
I have never felt that I had much in common with my peers, and often wondered if it was something in my brain. In my late twenties, I was finally evaluated and diagnosed with ADHD and Autism, and WOW do I understand myself better. When I was first starting this process, I was drawing and drawing trying to capture something I’ve always experienced; I see triangles everywhere. Not as hallucinations, but rather my brain fills in the missing lines between any 3 points to make a triangle. So, if you’ve been browsing and wondering about so many triangular images, congratulations! You made it to your late twenties and know it’s just pattern-finding tendencies in my brain. This playlist focuses on what my ADHD feels like, and the artwork is meant to represent the constant turning gears of my ADHD amid the patterns and structures of my Autism. Autism is overwhelmingly under-diagnosed for people assigned female at birth, and I slipped past the radar because I did pretty well in school.
