Some examples include Autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, and mental illnesses. Formal diagnosis is not required to participate. Those who are questioning a neurodivergent identity are welcome.This group aims to provide students with a place to share their struggles, give and receive support from others, and discuss their lived experiences without having to mask who they are. Each session will start with check-ins and introductions. Students can then ask for time to discuss a challenge they are experiencing or a topic they wish to explore with others.Please complete this form to register for the group._________________________________________________Hosted by the BGSU Counseling Center The BGSU Counseling Center aspires to respect cultural, individual and role differences.
