Useful new ideas

Shared several clips with loved ones and felt inspired to make positive changes in the way I plan my day.

Self Help for Me, Specifically

The first self-help book I’ve read that was written with me in mind. For that, it’s an unequivocal five stars.

Awareness- Inclusive - Informative - Relevant - Relatable

I am a late diagnosed autistic with adhd. This book is a treasure for me and my spouse. Well into my fifties, my new understanding of my experience has changed my coping mechanisms significantly. This book allows me to gain clear insights into taking a personal inventory, become curious about what works, and respond to the world around me in a way that is supportive. I no longer feel completely isolated and this book has helped me understand myself more deeply.

Helped me understand me

Going thru autisic burn out. Sought out help and my therapist suggested pod casts from Dr. Mega Neff. Which lead me yo find this audio book. It breaks down things that help me understand me and how my brain works. Because my doctors as a child didn’t understand or have the research to know what was going on. This gives crucial context and makes me feel better. Thank you.

An absolute MUST read for AuDHD Adults

I’ve been recommending this book anyone I know who struggles with AuDHD. More books like this need to be written for the adult female community that were either look past or not diagnosed correctly.
