## Description

Monotropism is an educational resource dedicated to explaining monotropism, a theory of autism developed by autistic people and initially by Dinah Murray and Wenn Lawson. The site describes how a monotropic mind may focus attention strongly on a smaller number of interests at a time, leaving fewer resources for other processes. It presents this framework as a way to understand many experiences commonly associated with autism, while noting that readers can find it useful without adopting it as a general theory of autism.

The resource explores monotropism alongside the double empathy problem and neurodiversity, offering perspectives on individual autistic experiences, communication across different ways of processing the world, and the social place of autistic people and other neurominorities. Its materials include explanations, practical applications, a history of the theory, updates, and information about ADHD and wellbeing. The site also provides the Monotropism Questionnaire, an online mental health course, and an archive of work by Dr. Dinah Murray.
