Although Sara Mortenson is superb as Astrid, I prefer the #neurodivergent character, Patience. Her more muted portrayal better represents the difficulties I have encountered with people's reactions - and lack of tolerance. In many ways watching her is like watching myself. I shall watch both and expect to learn more about me v the world.

@DziadekMick

I think what Astrid does brilliantly is to show what our internal experiences are so often like. But by openly expressing them. Patience though reflects the actual reality of how that is so often seen. The flat effect, the muted reactions, the logic and reason that is all the world sees of the iceberg of our reality.

@pathfinder You've put your finger on what Astrid does.
