If I want to read a story about a character with depression and search for the tag Depression, I will get a depressive psychological tragedy story.
I know it's part of depression being moody and it's our culture and media's fault for playing Depression as a life-ending thing, instead of a hurdle of many people's lives.
So, instead of me having a Depression tag in my novel, not having a character killing themselves in the first chapter, and someone drop the story, there should be a Neurodivergent Characters/Protagonist.
Quoting my friend Google and the first site that caught its algorithm:
Thanks.

Being neurodivergent means having a brain that works differently from the average or “neurotypical” person. This may be differences in social preferences, ways of learning, ways of communicating and/or ways of perceiving the environment.
Thanks.
