I had a major alcohol mismanagement problem for years. Found SMART Recovery (science based, free) and got a handle on it. 2 years later became a meeting facilitator.

The amount of ADHD, bipolar, and other ""neurodivergents" (hate the word) is astounding.

I would be very wary of substance use.

    What do you suggest instead of neurodivergent?

    Personally, I prefer 'neurodiverse', or some variation of 'not neurotypical'.

    'Neurodivergent' is just so ugly as a word and the sounds and mouth shape when saying the 'vergent' bit are gross.
