AI That Gets Me: Tools, Truths & Therapy Gaps

Let's talk honestly about how AI is showing up in ND life: what it makes easier, what it misses, what gets weird, what gets dangerous, and what traditional therapy still often fails to provide.

Bring a real example if you want: a prompt that helped, a response that surprised you, a use case that feels embarrassing, or a moment when AI got you through something you could not quite do alone.

We may explore:

• using AI for executive function, task initiation, planning, and transitions
• using AI for emotional regulation, social rehearsal, and communication scripts
• the difference between support, outsourcing, and over-reliance
• where AI can be genuinely useful for neurodivergent people
• where AI should absolutely not be treated like therapy
• what better AI-assisted mental health tools for neurodivergent people could look like

This is a facilitated conversation, not a lecture, tech demo, support group, or therapy session. You do not need to be an AI expert. You do not need to have a diagnosis. You just need lived experience with neurodivergence, curiosity about AI, and a willingness to talk honestly about what is already happening.

Queer-affirming. Neurodivergent-affirming. Therapist-facilitated, but not therapy.

Come before your weekend coding sprint, creative project spiral, deep-cleaning delusion, or “I swear I’m finally going to organize my life” phase begins. We’ll compare notes before the machines inherit the earth and still somehow fail to answer one email.
