Li recently shared a post on her Instagram reflecting on Neurodiversity day. The actor explained that she was diagnosed with ADHD at age 24, and that the diagnosis "answered many life long questions, and I feel like I'm finally understanding myself".
She also recently spoke about her experience in an interview with The Guardian, explaining that "[the diagnosis] completely changed how I viewed loads of things in my life, and made me really reconsider the way I think about things. In the past I was constantly late for things and forgetting things and losing things, and I remember as a teenager, my mum being like, 'Oh, you just need to be more careful.' And I'm like, 'I am really careful'. I felt like no one believed me ever. People, especially people who've just been diagnosed, go through a grieving period for who they were before. I'd love to be someone they can look at and say, 'OK, that person has been through that as well.'"
