Supporting neurodivergent individuals with migraine

Posted 11 February 2025

Did you know that autistic, ADHD, and other neurodivergent individuals are more likely to experience migraine? Research suggests that migraine prevalence is higher among neurodivergent people, yet many face barriers when seeking medical advice and treatment. Sensory sensitivities, difficulties with traditional appointment structures, or past experiences of being misunderstood in healthcare settings can all contribute to these challenges.
