Synopsis
An empowering lived-experience guide to celebrating and supporting neurodivergence from 24-year-old actor, social media star and advocate Chloé Hayden. Growing up, Chloé Hayden felt like she'd crash-landed on an alien planet where nothing made sense. Eye contact? Small talk? And WHY are you people so touch oriented? She moved between 10 schools in 8 years, struggling to become a person she believed society would accept, and was eventually diagnosed with autism and ADHD. It was only after a life-changing group of allies showed her that different did not mean less that she learned to celebrate her true voice and find her happily ever after. Different, Not Less is a moving, at times funny story of how it feels to be neurodivergent as well as a practical guide, with insights on how autism and ADHD present differently in females, advice for living with meltdowns and shutdowns, tips for finding supportive relationships, communities and workplaces and much more. Whether you're neurodivergent or supporting those who are, Different, Not Less will inspire you to create a more inclusive world where everyone feels like they belong.
My Review
This was a great book. I love these types of books as I was diagnosed with autism as an adult not so long ago and find them very helpful. This book really helps you understand some of the issues we face every day. And what is better is I also learnt some new things. This book is also very useful to those who wish to understand autism more to help friends and family. It's unbelievable how people were treated in the past. Especially the reason why nobody wants to use the word aspergers. Wow, that was some shocking reading. The author did a fantastic job at getting her story across in a way that was ery easy to understand. She gave some very good advice. I really recommend reading this book as it made things so easy to understand.
So much praise goes out to the author and publishers for sharing this story that I found so helpful.
