Happy Pride Month!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On today\u2019s show, we revisit our conversation with Dylan Alter, an advocate for ADHD awareness and the founder of NeuroQueer.org, a community that supports adults who are LGBTQ+ and neurodiverse. Dylan shares their personal journey, starting from a decade-long struggle with depression to finally being diagnosed with ADHD. They discuss how ADHD intersects with the queer experience, highlighting the parallel challenges of navigating identities in a world that may not understand or accommodate their needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dylan does a great job of walking through the similarities between ADHD and the Queer experience, emphasizing the significance of creating inclusive spaces where individuals can find understanding, compassion, and a sense of home. Dylan’s dedication to building this community stems from a deep-rooted desire to facilitate empathy and empower others, ultimately strengthening the collective bond of the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dylan Alter is the founder of NeuroQueer.org and is also an ADHD coach, working with both the non-profit and in his own private practice AlternativeADHD.com. He is non-binary, neurodivergent and has Jewish and Choctaw background. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
