This week, we've been chatting with Adam from the United States. He shares about his experiences navigating life while being neurodivergent, his thoughts on Spoony, and so much more! ♥️
Are you neurodivergent, chronically ill, and/or disabled?
Neurodivergent.
What health conditions do you have?
ADHD, Dyslexia and an intellectual learning disability.
How do you explain your health conditions to other people?
It's not easy. I tell people to think of it like a stamina bar in a video game.
What impact do your health conditions have on your daily life?
It has a big impact on my everyday life. Sometimes I need extra help with things that other people don’t.
What barriers have you experienced in making friends and connecting with people?
This is tough to answer. Making friends can be hard when other people are rude or don’t understand.
What's been your experience on Spoony so far?
Everything! This app is incredible, I really like it.
