ADHD teen realizing they might not be cisgender or straight. Identity questions + neurodivergence = complex. They're trying to understand who they are and whether neurodivergence affects it.

Adolescence is identity crisis on a normal day. Add neurodivergence.

How do you support a teen exploring identity while neurodivergent?

What helped me was picking one thing to understand at a time instead of trying to absorb the whole report in one sitting.
