Description

For adults who have long felt like their brain is wired differently, "I Think I Might Be Autistic" offers a guide to understanding and self-discovery. Cynthia Kim shares her own journey, from the moment she realized she might have autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to her eventual diagnosis with Asperger's syndrome. This concise book addresses the questions that follow, including what the symptoms of ASD look like in adults, how to prepare for an assessment, and how to cope with the emotional impact of discovering your autism. Kim provides information, insights, tips, and resources gathered from her own experience, as well as advice on living with ASD as a late-diagnosed adult. The book covers important aspects of sharing your diagnosis with others, managing the emotional impact, and finding support. A practical and helpful guide for adults who are seeking a better understanding of autism spectrum disorder and their place within it.
