@bethradulski: Neurotypical traits are seen as the default, so when neurodivergent people communicate differently, we’re often seen as rude, unstable, or even dishonest. We say what we mean, and somehow that makes us less trustworthy? Meanwhile, neurotypical people are praised for diplomacy—even when it’s just polished dishonesty. We don’t get the benefit of the doubt. We’re questioned, second-guessed, excluded from decisions. Overlooked for leadership roles and promotions. It’s not that we’re not trustworthy—it’s that the system trusts masks more than honesty. Normalize different forms of truth. #Neurodivergent #Ableism #neurodiversity #psychology #autism #adhd #audhd #MentalHealth #mentalhealthmatters #autistic
