       Can social anxiety (disorder) be considered a form of neurodivergence?

       @foxhkron Yes, it isn't a medical term. It simply means that your brain developed or works differently from what is currently considered normal.

       @foxhkron I suppose whether or not social anxiety is "normal" could be up for debate, but I'm not going to put myself in the position of deciding how we should label people.

       @foxhkron Usually social anxiety disorder it is not considered a form of neurodivergence on its own, but it can be a indicator of neurodivergent traits. It's just labels, though :)
