About this episode

The episode discusses the varied emotional responses individuals may have to receiving a diagnosis, particularly in the context of neurodiversity.

Some people get the diagnosis and feel the relief of a lifetime. Others feel grief so heavy they have no words for it yet. And some feel a strange stillness where a feeling should be.
