10%-20% of the population is neurodivergent. Probably more with how chronically under diagnosed both ASD and ADHD have been in women. Some of the people you know may well be in the spectrum and either don’t know it themselves or are masking.
I’d reach out to your student services, see if there’s any groups.
I’d also look for uni societies that relate to your special interests.

There will no doubt be more than you think - if there isn’t a neuro divergent society at your uni, you could start one?
At the very least there’s loads of neurodivergent communities on lemmy to get involved with.
!autism@lemmy.world for starts
Also worth checking out communities for ADHD and neurodivergence generally - there’s a lot of overlap to find stuff within.
