Neurodivergent on Yik Yak | the tiktokification of mental illness is genuinely going to kill me. the same mfs who go “omg yeah sorry my anxiety is soooooo bad” treat you like you’re actually insane for saying you’re uncomfortable with something that “literally isn’t a big deal”

It has its upsides like with how I likely would have gotten my autism diagnosis MUCH later than I did had I not seen those TikToks about autism and audhd (was already diagnosed adhd). But trivialization and misunderstanding is a big issue, though tbf it started before TikTok, most notably (to me at least) when it comes to ocd
