 Understanding Neurodiversity: More Than “Invisible Disabilities”
Neurodiversity is often referred to as an “invisible disability,” a term that includes Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Tourette’s Syndrome, Dyslexia, and many other brain-based differences. An estimated 15–20% of the world’s population is considered neurodivergent. Despite this significant number, society often continues to frame brains as either “typical” or “disordered.” The world is still far more accommodating to neurotypical individuals. In fact, in some countries, the unemployment rate for neurodivergent people is reported to be as high as 78%.  Uncertainty is an inevitable part of life. Finances, family, health, politics, relationships—at some point, we all face not knowing what the future holds. As humans, we crave stability and control, so when life feels unpredictable, it can lead to stress, anxiety, or even a sense of powerlessness.
