Tam Vos | Autism & ADHD

From the outside, I often appear highly successful: I am close to graduating cum laude and participate in honours education. What people usually do not see is that, due to autism and ADHD, I deal with constant sensory overload, exhaustion, executive dysfunction, and the invisible effort behind that success.

What they do not see is that after studying it takes hours before my nervous system settles down enough for me to function again. One thing I care deeply about is correcting misconceptions around support. These facilities do not give disabled students unfair advantages. They help create equal starting conditions. Without them, we are already starting one step behind.
