Description
by J. Whalley (Author)
The reality of adulting and/or parenting children, with Autism and ADHD.
A very honest account of the author's experience of being diagnosed with Autism and ADHD at age 38. The difficulties and mental health struggles faced up until this point and the reasons why opting for assessment was chosen.
Following her non verbal son's diagnosis at age 3, Jessica dedicated her every moment to finding the best support and all of the information possible to help him interact, communicate and live to his full potential. This continues to be a working success however, the stress and anxiety of such pressure and the unknown had a huge affect on her own mental health.
Subsequently, after several difficult years, it was apparent that Jessica herself needed assessment for Autism and was in fact diagnosed with the condition alongside ADHD.
This book details the journey up to this point, looks at her life before having a family and being raised in a different world to what we live in today, whilst being undiagnosed.
The process of adult diganosis, child diagnosis, advice for parents and other adults alongside positivity and inspiration make this a must read for any parent, any adult struggling with their mental health and anyone who works with children.
Also for anyone that would like to learn about the increasing rates in diagnosis of these conditions, in particular those who have doubts.
