Terms of Use / Disclaimers

This blog is offered as a supportive space to explore and better understand neurodivergent experiences, including your own and those of people you care about. By using this site, you agree to the following terms of use.


Purpose of the blog

  • The blog’s purpose is to provide general education, reflection, and practical ideas for self‑advocacy, self‑care, and support for loved ones who may be neurodivergent. It is intended to complement, not replace, information and care from qualified health and mental health professionals.

  • Content is written from a mix of lived experience, informal education, and publicly available resources, and should be understood as supportive information and opinion, not as professional clinical advice.

No professional relationship

  • Reading, commenting on, or contacting the author through this blog does not create a therapeutic, medical, or coaching relationship. Any communication via comments, email, or forms is for general discussion and support only.

  • The blog does not provide individualized assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, or crisis support. For those needs, consult appropriately qualified professionals in your area.

Personal responsibility

  • You are responsible for how you choose to interpret and apply information from this blog to your life or relationships. Use your own judgment and, where appropriate, seek professional guidance before making health, educational, work, or medication decisions.

  • The blog cannot guarantee that strategies or perspectives described will be suitable for every person or situation, given the wide diversity within neurodivergent communities.

Not for emergencies

  • This blog is not designed for emergency or crisis support. If you or someone you love is in immediate danger, in crisis, or considering self‑harm, contact local emergency services, a crisis hotline, or attend the nearest emergency department right away.

Changes and updates

  • Terms of use and content may be updated or revised periodically to reflect new insights, language, or research. Continued use of the blog after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)–Assisted Research and Writing

  • Some content on this site may be supported by AI-assisted research and writing tools. All information is shared for educational and reflective purposes only and should not be considered professional or clinical advice.

Disclaimers

  • Blog content on this site is for general information and education only and is not a substitute for professional, individualized clinical care. Nothing on this blog is intended to provide a diagnosis, prescribe a treatment plan, or recommend starting, changing, or stopping any medication.

    Reading about neurodivergence online can be a helpful starting point for self‑understanding, but it cannot replace a thorough assessment by a qualified clinician who can consider your full history, current context, and any co‑occurring conditions. Only licensed healthcare professionals are trained and authorized to provide formal diagnoses and personalized treatment recommendations.


    If you have questions or concerns about your mental health, neurodevelopmental profile, or medication, speak directly with a licensed physician, psychiatrist, psychologist, or other appropriately qualified professional in your region. Do not delay, disregard, or change professional medical advice because of something you have read on this blog or elsewhere online.

    The information shared here may summarize or interpret aspects of current research, but it is not peer‑reviewed scientific literature and may not reflect the most up‑to‑date evidence or clinical guidelines. For decisions about diagnosis, treatment options, or medication, rely on peer‑reviewed sources and guidance from reputable professional organizations (for example national psychological, psychiatric, or medical associations), together with your own healthcare providers.

    In an emergency—such as thoughts of self‑harm, intent to harm others, or inability to care for yourself—contact local emergency services, a crisis hotline, or go to the nearest emergency department immediately. Online resources, including this blog, are not designed to respond to crises or provide urgent care.
