I'm neurodivergent and my brain works differently, causing me to face challenges like workplace gossip, discrimination, and violence due to not fitting societal norms.
I choose not to conform to automatic behaviors that others adopt to fit in, rejecting blind conformity that leads to unfair treatment and exclusion.
Humans should discuss thoughts and feelings openly, rather than adhering to unspoken rules, to combat discrimination against those who deviate from the norm.
I urge 'normal' individuals to reflect on how their thoughtless actions might harm those who are different and to take accountability for their behavior.
