You Are More Than A Label

I want to talk today about being more than the labels we were given whether that’s short, tall, thin, big, smart, stupid, white, black or brown, LGTBQ+, neurotypical or neurodiverse. I don’t want to minimize these labels if you like them being part of you. But I want to remind you that they aren’t the totality of you. I hope that makes sense. Do you ever feel excluded because of the label you were given by a social construct? Or by doctors, therapists, professionals, or politicians? I know for me it’s often difficult to think of the qualities that I have that aren’t related to NLD or the chronic migraine condition I have. I do know that I am more than those two labels though.  Links for articles:https://rightasrain.uwmedicine.org/mind/mental-health/neurodiversity-or-neurodivergencehttps://www.str.org/w/people-are-more-than-labelshttps://aeon.co/essays/neurodiversity-is-not-enough-we-should-embrace-psydiversityLink for Pateron:⁠ patreon.com/LivingWithAnInvisibleLearningChallenge⁠Links for new podcasts:Shero: Be Your Own Hero Trailer: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/1O7Mb26wUJIsGzZPHuFlhX?si=c3b2fabc1f334284⁠Chats, Barks, & Growls: Convos With My Pet Trailer: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/74BJO1eOWkpFGN5fT7qJHh?si=4440df59d52c4522⁠Think Out: Free Your Imagination Trailer: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/episode/71UWHOgbkYtNoHiUagruBj?si=3d96889cfd2f487b⁠Links for Sleepy Butterfly:1. ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/5FNnA8XFCzRORCRaZXlHE9?si=a82d5133f7f6411e⁠2. ⁠https://www.facebook.com/sleepybutterfly96⁠My platforms:1.https://site-y2pc01yz2.godaddysites.com/2. ⁠https://www.facebook.com/livingwithnld?view_public_for=107332511122585#⁠3. ⁠https://www.instagram.com/livingwithmultilds/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr#⁠4. ⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOqAA0b3-C-qDkhKwCmaaZg
