In the not-so-distant past, autistic children were taught that their neurodivergent traits were unacceptable. As a result, many learned to "mask" at a young age--which has led to higher levels of stress, burnout, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and depression in adulthood. Written by a therapist who is also autistic, this neurodiversity-affirming workbook guides the reader to unmask, and provides the tools and skills needed to thrive authentically and succeed in a neurotypical world.
