Divergent Conversations
Burnout isn't a character flaw. For a lot of AuDHD brains, it's what years of masking cost. 🔋
Who it's for
Two therapists who are themselves autistic and ADHD talk about burnout, sensory overload and masking from the inside, which combines clinical language with lived recognition.

What it is
