This, alongside a lack of information about the Equality Act 2010, caused significant barriers to her receiving support at university for depression and generalised anxiety disorder. Luisa and Cath also discuss the founding of the Neurodiversity Architecture Network, how personal identity conflicts can exacerbate depression, and how important community can be as an international student in a new country.
