Peter is schizophrenic, and he also thinks "neurodivergent" is a better way to describe his brain, because it does not pathologize him.
Sam is both autistic and bipolar, and uses neurodivergent because it allows them to talk about their experiences as both non-allistic and non-mentally-"healthy" in a way that doesn't carry a bunch of extra judgments about what's good or normal.

A term used to describe people with neurodevelopmental disorders. Originally used referring to autism but was expanded to include things such as ADHD. commonly misused on sites such as tumblr to describe anyone with a mental illness, but this is a misuse of the term.

Someone either diagnosed or self-diagnosed with a developmental disorder that affects their learning, attention, or mood.
