What is Neurodivergent? What are the signs of Neurodivergent? Let's find out together!
Neurodivergence is a common neurological disorder. It exists on a spectrum that encompasses many different ways the human brain functions. Some individuals have specific diagnoses within the neurological spectrum, such as autism, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, not all people with neurological disorders receive a formal mental health diagnosis.

Below are some common habits of a person with Neurodivergent
Skin prick
Skin picking (sometimes called scratching disorder) occurs when you repeatedly pick at your skin—this can be caused by pimples, scabs, or other discolored spots on your skin.
Hair pulling
Hair pulling (sometimes called trichotillomania) occurs when you pull out hair from any part of your body. Hair pulling can lead to hair loss, and researchers have linked it to OCD, ADHD, and autism.
Walk on your toes
Toe walking occurs when you walk on your toes and the ball of your foot instead of your heel. It usually occurs in children, but adults can exhibit this behavior too. Research has linked toe walking with autism.
Cheek bite
Some neurodivergent people repeatedly bite the inside of their cheeks, which can lead to mouth ulcers and other oral health problems. Researchers have linked this behavior to OCD, and results show that it is quite common in neurodivergent people.
Bite nails
Experts stress that not everyone who bites their nails has a neurological disorder — the habit is common in many individuals for reasons that may be completely unrelated to their cognitive processing.
Cracking knuckles
While some people have a habit of cracking their knuckles, cracking their knuckles too frequently has been linked to OCD.
