Neuroxenic (and it's analogues) is a term that describes the state when one's neurological or mental functioning can be described, explained or understood in non-normative or non-human ways.

Being neuroxenic can be connected to or influenced by being kin, spiritual, plural and more. It can also be connected to and described using aesthetics, animals, colors and more.

Being neuroxenic can be considered as its own form of neurodivergence. However, neuroxenic as a term isn't inherently neurodivergent, nor is it neurotypical; there are no restrictions for using this term; anyone can use neuroxenic labels, whether they are ND, NT, neither, both, in-between, or other.

Neuroxenic can be used as an umbrella term that includes xenautism and xenADHD as well as other xenoabled and xenomalady identities that describe mental or neurological functioning ways that are xenic in nature. (however, no one has to be included into neuroxenic umbrella if they don't want to).
For example: someone might identify as xenoneuro due to being xenADHD and/or xenautistic.
Neuroxenic identities can be standalone terms as well.
Examples: someone might identify as neuroxenic due to feeling like the right way to explain their ways of neurological functioning is through neuroxenic labels (regardless of whether they have or don't have any specific NDs)
New neuroxenic identities can also be coined by adding any prefix to -neuro.
For example: kinneuro (link). Someone might identify as kinneuro due to being kinautistic and/or kinADHD or due to believing that the kinneuro label is the right way to explain their neurological functioning.

Neuroxenic identities aren't inherently transidentities, although they can be.
The coiner believes that anyone can identify as cisneuroxenic as well as transneuroxenic.

Some examples of using the term:
"I use neuroxenic labels such as xenautistic, xenADHD and others"
"I am xenneuro, specifically - kinneuro, because i believe my neurodivegrence is influenced by my otherkinity"
"I am xenoneuro, i believe the way i think can only be described in non-normative ways"
And many, many more. The coiner believes there is no wrong way to identity as neuroxenic.

Thank you for reading this post. The coiner would appreciate any feedback. You can ask any questions about this term. You are very welcome to coin neuroxenic flags, identities, and other things.
