"I'm lazy." "I'm too much." "Everyone else can handle this — why can't I?"
These stories feel like facts. They're not. They're injuries — built over years in environments that didn't understand your neurology. And like any injury, they can be mapped, understood, and repaired.
The Narrative Injury Mapping Tool is a structured, six-section worksheet that guides you through the full arc of one core wound story — from where it started to what it costs you today to what a more accurate story might look like instead.
Sections include:
The Situation — where and how the story took root
The Wound Story — the belief running underneath everything
Evidence the Story Collects — how it stays alive by filtering your experience
How It Shapes Your Patterns — the loop it runs in your daily life
Alternative Narratives — a more accurate story that also fits the facts
Practices for Story Repair — catching the old story and building the new one over time
Closes with a Story Repair Summary to pull it all together and identify what you still need to feel the new story, not just understand it.
This is deep work. It's designed to be done with a therapist, at your own pace, across multiple sessions if needed.
Designed for: Neurodivergent adults doing narrative repair work, and clinicians using structured worksheets in session.
What's included: 1 printable PDF, letter-size.
This tool is not a diagnostic instrument. For clinical and educational use only.
