You may have spent years adapting around everyone else.
Sensitive and neurodivergent people often become very aware of what others need while losing touch with their own limits, preferences, energy, and inner signals.
Greater self-understanding can change the way you make decisions, care for your energy, communicate your needs, and relate to yourself.
