vaultfox | cosplADHD - tips, tricks & stories of cosplaying while neurodivergent | PAX East 2023 Panel @vaultfox | Uploaded April 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Cosplay is an overwhelming hobby, DOUBLY so for those of us with ADHD and other neurodivergencies! While it may *seem* daunting, fear not! This panel of cosplayers and mental health professionals will share their tips and tricks for working with their neurodivergent traits to create larger-than-life costumes, boost their self-esteem and make life-long memories so you can too!
I still can't believe I hosted an actual panel at PAX East, I've been going to PAX since 2015 and never dreamed I'd be up on that stage!!! Thanks everyone that attended either in person or on the stream!
special thanks to my fellow panelists mentioned below, without you this would NOT have happened!
