Great for Autistic and "Weird" Adults submitted by journeyhawthorne on June 10, 2023, 7:20pm Reading this book offered an insight into my own lived experiences, and provided me with a few exercises to work on. It was amazing to not feel so alone--Dr. Price's examples from across the spectrum were either extremely relatable or illuminating. Definitely a good read for both diagnosed Autistic folks and those who have always just been seen as "weird."
A must read submitted by aaaccess on June 24, 2023, 3:28pm Also helpful for neurotypicals who want to understand.
