Authenticity Is Healing
I was recently diagnosed as neurodivergent, with high abilities.
And instead of feeling broken…
I felt relief.
Relief for the little girl who was always too much.
For the woman who tried to fit into systems that never fit her nervous system.
For the healer who sensed emotions, pain, and patterns long before words existed.
This diagnosis didn’t change who I am.
It finally explained who I’ve always been.
My sensitivity is not weakness.
My intensity is not imbalance.
My depth is not excess.
It is perception.
It is intelligence wired differently.
It is a nervous system designed to feel, see, and hold complexity.
So much of my healing journey was never about becoming someone new, it was about remembering myself without shame.
Accepting my differences didn’t limit me.
It liberated me.
And self-discovery doesn’t end with a diagnosis.
It begins there.
If this resonates with you, if you’ve ever felt out of place, misunderstood, exhausted by masking, or labeled “too sensitive”, you are not broken.
There is something true about you asking to be honored.
✨
If you are on a journey of self-discovery, nervous system healing, or learning to honor your sensitivity instead of fighting it, I see you. You are not alone. And this space is for you too. 🤍
