Unmask – Be Yourself
Understand yourself. Respect the way you work. Be more yourself.
Constantly adapting, hiding difficulties or controlling your reactions can take a lot of energy. Unmask is a space to get to know yourself and respect your needs.
Move at your own pace and, when you want to and feel safe, let go of part of the mask.

Practical resources without an account
Our guides offer step-by-step templates and fictional examples in six languages. The standalone worksheet can be tried without signing in.
Choose your first tool
To reflect on a day, start with the journal. To express your availability, explore the social battery. To make an action easier to remember, start with a routine. Then return to one question: “Was this useful to me?” You can adjust the tool, leave it aside or choose another one.

A space where you do not have to keep explaining yourself
Unmask is also a space to meet and connect with others, built around neurodiversity. Your profile can describe how you communicate, your response pace, social energy, needs and interests.
Because relationships become easier when everyone can explain how they work.
Eligible members can connect through the community. If you are undergoing assessment and have not declared a diagnosis, personal tools remain available; community access requires a diagnosis declared in your profile.
Better understanding goes both ways.
Loved ones and neurotypical people also have a place in Unmask to learn about and better understand neurodivergent people.
A need for silence, a delayed reply, sensory overload or social fatigue can be hard to explain. Unmask offers guidance to understand these needs and communicate without adding pressure.
Living well together should not always mean asking the neurodivergent person to do all the adapting. Understanding can go both ways.
Autism (ASD), ADHD, giftedness (HPI)… or simply exploring
You do not have to fit neatly into a category to start understanding how you work. Unmask brings together tools around neurodiversity so you can move at your own pace and have more room to be yourself.
Unmask is a tool for everyday support. It does not provide a diagnosis or replace professional care.
Practical ideas to try, even without an account
Unmask’s tools start with everyday situations: a tiring conversation, a day that is hard to organise, or a feeling that is difficult to describe. Here are some ways to begin. These are personal organisation ideas to adapt to your preferences, not a test or a treatment method.
Social battery: notice the context instead of aiming for a score
Before going out, consider how much energy you want to spend on conversation and where you could take a break. Afterwards, note what took effort: noise, duration, the number of people or difficulty leaving. Two meetings of the same length can feel very different.
In Unmask, tracking your social battery can provide a personal reference. For example: “I still wanted to see my friends, but I needed to leave the noisy room.” A low level is not a failure and does not measure how much you care about others. You can also make this observation on paper, without calculating a percentage.
Routines: choose one small step that matters to you
When leaving home, “get ready” may feel too vague. Describe a visible action instead, such as putting your keys beside your bag. Add another step if it helps. In Unmask’s routines and reminders, choose prompts that fit your actual day rather than an ideal programme that is hard to follow.
If a reminder becomes a source of pressure, reconsider its timing or usefulness. A routine can change: on busy days, keeping just one useful step is an option. The aim is to reduce what you need to hold in your head, not to achieve a perfect series of identical days.
Emotions and journaling: separate events, feelings and needs
When words are hard to find, start with a specific situation: “The plan changed at the last minute.” Then note what you notice, without having to name an emotion immediately: tense shoulders, wanting quiet, difficulty replying. If you can, finish with a need or a concrete request.
The journal and emotion tools give you somewhere to keep these observations. You can write “I do not know what I feel yet” and return later. Reading a few notes can help you prepare what you want to discuss; it cannot establish a diagnosis.
Communicate a need without explaining everything
A short request can be easier than a long explanation: “I need twenty quiet minutes; can we continue afterwards?” or “I prefer getting information in writing.” Choose words that feel right to you and share only what you want to share.
A loved one could reply: “Would you prefer me to stay, write to you, or give you some time?” The person’s preference matters more than an assumption based on autism, ADHD or giftedness. Profiles and conversations in Unmask provide context for discussing those preferences, without assuming everyone has the same needs.
Prepare for an appointment with the therapy space
Before a session, choose one situation to discuss, what you have already tried and a question you would like to ask. A short note can be enough: “Changes of plan were difficult this week; I would like to discuss how to prepare for them.”
Unmask’s journal and therapy space help you organise these points. You decide what you want to discuss with your professional. The app does not replace their assessment, prescribe treatment or provide an emergency service.
