Mental Health and Neurodiversity in Adult SFF

Sci fi, fantasy, and science fantasy books featuring protagonists who are dealing with mental health issues, and/or are neurodiverse in some way - maybe on the autism spectrum, or having ADHD, schizophrenia, OCD, synesthesia, bipolar disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, etc. Suggestions very welcome!

I love the idea for this list! I think A Strange and Stubborn Endurance by Foz Meadows could potentially be a good fit. That book focuses a lot on trauma, mental health and healing from trauma in one of the main characters' journeys.
