In this episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott explore neurodivergent rumination, the exhausting cycle of overthinking conversations, replaying mistakes, fearing rejection, and getting trapped in negative thought loops.

They unpack how rumination can be intensified by trauma, rejection sensitivity, and the neurodivergent tendency to experience life at a much higher volume. From obsessing over a brief interaction with a stranger to spiralling over a simple text message, they explain why seemingly small moments can trigger overwhelming emotional responses.

A raw, validating, and deeply relatable conversation about overthinking, emotional survival, and learning to be kinder to yourself in a loud internal world.
