For many of us, fatigue isn’t about being tired — it’s about our bodies running on flight or fight .Join DNA for a conversation on how neuroimmune conditions like lupus, POTS, or long COVID shape cognition, energy, and mood — and why they deserve a place in the neurodiversity conversation.

We’ll discuss:

How the immune system impacts the brain
What chronic fatigue really feels like (and why rest doesn’t always help)
The emotional toll of “fluctuating disability”
How to pace your life without guilt

As always we will meet in Rueben Cooke at 7PM.
