Neurodiversity at UConn celebrates the strengths and potential of a wide variety of differently wired brains.
Some examples of the cognitive variations that fall under the neurodiversity umbrella are anxiety, autism, ADHD,
depression, dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, and other learning differences. We've highlighted a few of these below.

Happy Friday, and happy Thanksgiving Break everyone! We`re here to say congratulations to making it more than halfway through the Fall semester!

This semester has been long, and this week has been feeling like just a brief respite from the chaos. But you`ve made it to Thanksgiving, and you only have two more weeks of classes and a week of finals to get through. So stay strong!

Please remember that this is a break, and you deserve to rest. If you have been feeling guilty this week for not doing the work assigned to you, take consolation in the fact that you have earned this time to relax, and the work will get done when it needs to be. Take a deep breath.

This is also about the time that most people start to experience seasonal depression, because the days are getting shorter and it can feel as if we don`t have enough time do get things done. It`s important to realize that this is normal - it`s called Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD - and it could be the cause of not being able to work or focus as hard. Especially in this space between Halloween and Christmas.

So as this week wraps up, make sure you`re getting in as much rest as possible. And remember that we`re only two weeks away from finals! So when we get back, let`s give it our all! ❤️
