“Wired Different” is a graphic novel about neurodivergence, stigma, and self-advocacy. In a post-human robot society where psychology is forbidden, four neurodivergent students inadvertently form an advocacy club that becomes a lifeline for struggling teens. Stigma, grief, and conspiracy-fueled backlash force them to decide whether to stay silent or advocate for themselves.
