Hey there 

I just finished a audiobook called Unmasking Autism by Devon Price. I really enjoyed it and this was my first experience of an audible. I struggle to read books as I find I read and then track back and read again, I struggle to concentrate and take it all in basically.

Is there a must read book that anyone can recommend for self discovering as a newly recognised autistic?

    Thanks for this recommendation, it’s on my list!

    In terms of recommendations for you:

    • We’re All Neurodiverse by Sonny Jane Wise - absolutely brilliant book.
    • Neuroqueer Heresies by Dr Nick Walker - another brilliant book 
    • Drama Queen by Sara Gibbs - very funny!

    I hope you enjoy these reads too!

    Thank you so much for your recommendations. I’m going to try and do all of them, one at a time of course! 
    Never really thought about ADHD tbh as I’ve never really had and issues with behaviour but guess it’s not just about that solely is it?? My concentration is quite poor sometimes and quite often give up on things so that’s something else to consider.

    Thanks again everyone
