About Death to the DSM
Join NEUROMANCERS for Death to the DSM, a community research and development project where ewe collaborate on a peer-led zine exploring the varied experiences of the neurodivergent+ community. Each monthly session focuses on a different neurodivergent+ 'trait' or experience.
You do not need research experience to join us. We just need you, the trust to share your experiences, and an interest in discussing neurodivergent+ and disability theory!

About NEUROMANCERS
NEUROMANCERS is a peer-led organisation providing autonomous, abolitionist, and accessible mental health care for and by the neurodivergent+ community.
To NEUROMANCE means to 'fall in love with divergence'.
The mainstream healthcare system fails our community by labelling neurodivergent+ people 'defective' and 'disordered'.
NEUROMANCERS seek to provide an alternative. Instead, we fall in love with divergence. Our traits are neither 'curses' nor 'superpowers'. We are simply people surviving a society that oppresses and excludes us in the best ways we know how.
NEUROMANCERS is here to support you - at whatever stage of the journey you are on - by providing autonomous, abolitionist, and accessible mental health care, by us and for us.
