What’s Your AF?
A diagnosis is just a tool. That said, sometimes tools are useful. So we’ve broken down some of the most common neurodivergences and the situations, patterns, and questions commonly associated with them. This is by no means a comprehensive list, and it will keep growing. Each page connects you to plain-language information, real research, practical articles, coaching routes, free tools, and products selected by the function they serve.
Diagnosis Schniagmosis
Officially diagnosed? TikTok-diagnosed? Self-diagnosed? Just suspicious? Doesn’t matter. These are resources, not a test, so follow your gut AF. Relate to several, use one without claiming a diagnosis, or leave the label behind and take the support that works.

ADHD AF
ADHD can make access to attention, action, time, working memory, and emotional regulation highly dependent on context. The goal here is not perfect consistency. It is building systems that make the next useful action easier to reach.

Autistic AF
Autistic experience can shape sensory processing, communication, transitions, interests, energy, and the amount of active interpretation everyday life requires. Useful support begins with your own sensory, communication, energy, and access profile.

OCD AF
OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, images, urges, doubt, distress, avoidance, checking, mental rituals, reassurance seeking, or other compulsive responses. Practical support must be designed carefully so it does not become another source of certainty or ritual.

Anxious AF
Anxiety can turn uncertainty into constant monitoring, planning, checking, rehearsing, avoidance, or physical high alert. Practical support can reduce unnecessary demand without pretending every fear can be planned away.

Dyslexic AF
Dyslexia can change the speed, effort, accuracy, and reliability of reading, spelling, written expression, sequencing, or text-based memory. Access improves when information is allowed to arrive and leave in more than one format.

Dyscalculic AF
Dyscalculia can involve persistent difficulty processing numbers, quantities, calculations, time, money, measurements, and other number-based information. Support makes number meaning visible and keeps calculations available outside working memory.

Dyspraxic AF
Dyspraxia, often discussed clinically as developmental coordination disorder, can affect motor planning, coordination, spatial organization, sequencing, handwriting, handling objects, and the fatigue created by ordinary physical tasks.

Tourettic AF
Tourette syndrome and other tic disorders involve involuntary movements or sounds that may change in type, intensity, frequency, and context. Good support makes room for the person instead of making stillness the price of participation.
