For many of us, the version of Autism or ADHD we live doesn’t come with visible support needs.But behind closed doors, the internal experience can be dark. Disorienting.Overwhelmingly lonely — often shaped by competing internal demands.We suffer. Our families suffer.And over time, generational cycles of trauma, burnout, and addiction can take root.This is the part that often gets overlooked — in media portrayals, in systems of care, and in some of the critiques aimed at late-diagnosed adults and the rise in neurodivergent self-identification.
