from AuDHD and Then Some. · host Ellie AuDHD of AuDHD and then some.

Have you ever been convinced you were psychic, magical, different, or somehow able to sense things other people couldn’t?In this episode, I explore something I’ve noticed in myself and in countless other neurodivergent people: the surprising link between ADHD, autism, AuDHD, intuition, pattern recognition, spirituality, and magical thinking.From believing I had special abilities as a child to noticing how many neurodivergent people are drawn to tarot, astrology, synchronicities, spirituality, and reading people, I unpack why this might be more common than we think.Is it intuition? Hypervigilance? Pattern recognition? Imagination? Trauma? Or something else entirely?Let’s talk about it.#ADHD #Autism #AuDHD #Neurodivergent #Psychic #Intuition #MagicalThinking #PatternRecognition #Spirituality #LateDiagnosis #ADHDWomenandmen
