OPINION: My disability is not your new personality trait
A trend I have noticed on TikTok over the past few years is the upsweep in content discussing neurodiversity and what it is like to live with these diagnoses. I am someone with ADHD, dyslexia, PTSD, anxiety and depression, as well as chronic health issues i.e., postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and Hashimoto’s disease, so I am all for the de-stigmatization of these conditions, and more, through healthy conversations.
