People living in ‘diverse bodies’ often have no choice
but to become translators of their own experience,
because the systems around them do not yet have
the language, understanding or framework to
connect with what they are experiencing.
While awareness of neurodivergence, connective tissue disorders, chronic pain and neuro-
inflammatory conditions is slowly growing, understanding remains fragmented, niche and more brain than body focused.
Bodies Like Mine was created to change that.
We bridge the gap between lived experience and professional understanding to create an Ireland
where bodies like ours are heard, prioritised, understood and believed.
Follow along if this sounds like you. We want to hear from you and co-create this much needed community with your voices heard and understood.
