Description

Depression is a common experience for many people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). This book provides a comprehensive review of depression in ASD, as well as a practical self-help guide to help manage its effects. Written by leading experts in the field, the book explains depression, its different forms, and how it can manifest for individuals on the autism spectrum. The authors draw on the latest research to offer effective strategies for coping with depression and provide a step-by-step CBT self-help programme tailored to the needs of those with ASD. The programme helps increase self-awareness, including identifying personal triggers, and provides the tools to combat depression. By understanding depression and learning how to manage its effects, individuals with ASD can improve their overall well-being and quality of life.
