Description
A Different Sort of Normal by Abigail Balfe is a personal and insightful journey of self-discovery, exploring the author's experiences growing up autistic and navigating the world around her.
This book shares Abigail's story, from childhood to adulthood, as she attempts to make sense of her neurodivergence and the world that often doesn't understand it. Along the way, she shares valuable facts and personal anecdotes about neurodiversity, sensory sensitivities, social communication, emotions, and more.
Abigail's story is not just for neurodivergent people, but for anyone who wants to understand and support those who are different. With honesty, humor, and practical tips, this book offers a unique perspective on what it means to be neurodivergent and how to thrive in a world that often doesn't fit.
