A place to discuss the less palatable issues in the ADHD neurodivergent community. Ask questions and share stories about addiction, relationship issues, bullying issues, and other shit that is hard to have conversations about. This is a type of "safe space" as we will ask Neurotypicals to avoid commenting on certain posts (see flair). We want open and honest discussions about the issues we face while we navigate a world striving for order, while our minds are chaos.
