Neurodivergent Support Group is a support group for people who are neurodivergent, to talk, vent and navigate life situations.

The facilitator herself is neurodivergent and wants to build a community that supports each other, a place where ideas, solutions and problems are discussed from an experiential point of view. A community that doesn’t conform to normative ideas and find unique solutions within their framework of personal or social experience.

It was founded in November 2021. It has grown and expanded ever since, we have created a solid group of people that come together every session to support each other.

Neurodivergent People Only. That is, folks who experience Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, ADHD, Autism, or any other neurodivergent experience.

Our belief is that a problem doesn’t exist within the person but is based out of the context and systems they live in. They are the experts of their life and have know how’s into navigating problems. Belongingness, compassion and support contribute hugely to feeling seen, heard and loved. Which helps in supporting their mental health.

We refer any person requiring more support to the concerned resources.

Other diagnosed mental health conditions.

The person can call or message on the office phone number and the office person coordinates to include their name in the group, they are then added to the WhatsApp group of the support group. The link is shared on this WhatsApp group.

We take in suggestions from the members of a topic they want to discuss for eg. RSD or Perfectionism etc and the facilitator frames questions around that and sends it in the group a day or two prior, to allow participants to think about it. The group then meets online to discuss the topic.

It’s a no shame-blame zone. We do not judge and maintain safety and confidentiality.

A feeling of acceptance and belongingness. Sometimes clarity and relief if figuring out a way out of sticky situations.
