How Monotropic are you?
Take The Quiz
Monotropism is a way of describing how many autistic minds naturally focus attention. Rather than spreading attention broadly, a monotropic brain tends to dive deeply into one or a few areas of interest at a time. This focused way of thinking can lead to powerful creativity, insight, and flow. While it may come with challenges—like difficulty switching tasks or handling interruptions—it’s a valid and valuable way of experiencing and engaging with the world.

Time Blind
You’re Not Lazy — Time Just Works Differently
Time blindness is a term used to describe how some neurodivergent people naturally perceive time in a non-linear or inconsistent way. You might feel surprised at how much time has passed—or feel like time hasn’t moved at all. This isn’t a flaw, but a different way the brain tracks and experiences time. Recognizing time blindness can open the door to supportive strategies and greater self-understanding.
Spoon Theory
Making Sense of Fatigue, Overwhelm, and Burnout
Spoon Theory is a simple way to explain the energy limits many neurodivergent or chronically ill people experience. Imagine you start each day with a limited number of “spoons,” and every task—no matter how small—uses one or more. When your spoons run out, so does your ability to keep going, which can make even everyday life feel overwhelming. Want to see Spoon Theory explained with neurodivergent experiences in mind?
