On the Spectrum: A Neurodivergence Panel Discussion with Badass Women of Wichita

On The Spectrum: A Neurodivergence Panel Discussion

The mystery of a neurodiversity misdiagnosis is difficult to solve, thanks to its sneaky overlapping symptoms with other conditions. With no magic lab test or brain scan in sight for a foolproof diagnosis, many go through their lives without understanding why they function differently. To add to the confusion, most medical testing is done on men, so women often go undiagnosed or are misdiagnosed because of the way autism shows up differently in them.

In this informative panel discussion, we’ll unpack the complexities of how neurodivergency shows up differently in women, the complications of missed diagnosis, and adjusting to perceptions.
