Hi, I'm Sophie & I write The Art of Feeling it All. You can find me at @sophiewillowwrites. https://open.substack.com/pub/inseasonwithsophie?r=3khnma&utm_medium=ios

The Art of Feeling it All offers personal insights on the importance of personal fulfilment & desire, how to heal PMDD holistically, and navigating late-discovered neurodivergence.

Whether you feel different from the crowd, suspect you’re neurodivergent, are self discovered or formally diagnosed, know that you are welcome here.

Visual Interviews

I interview people about their experiences of the relationship between art and mental health and I offer the opportunity to answer in images instead of text. While this isn't strictly for/ about neurodivergence, it often attracts neurodivergent people (and most are women).

In related interviews that were answered in words check out Meet Neurodivergent Playwright Kari Bentley-Quinn through this art and mental health interview:

There's also a guest post from Allegra Chapman- Happiness is yellow: why neurodivergence can drive creativity

This overview of three Lisa Carver books includes her powerful piece on parenting a neurodiverse child: https://createmefree.substack.com/p/lisa-carvers-heart-wrenching-writing

I've also found that neurodiversity means we all have different needs when it comes to things like the quantity of inbox mail that we get so I try to accommodate that - for example, offering just a monthly digest instead of a steady stream of newsletters: https://createmefree.substack.com/p/want-less-email-from-create-me-free
