The above statement was written in regard to the gender binary. As someone who is non-binary and also neurodivergent, I believe it describes both experiences.

In both ways, I have crushed myself (masked) in order to get acceptance and not feel lonely.

But I lost who I was in that process.

So grateful to have the safety and space to peel back and rediscover myself now in my 40s! 🥰🙏
