The Autistic’s Guide to Self-Discovery

Sol runs a community for neurospicy folk and this is a very practical book on what it can be like to have autism diagnosed (or self-dignosed) later in life. He talks about his own experiences and shares a few stories from people he’s worked with, suitably anonymized. While I don’t entirely fit the criteria here, I’m also not what you’d call allistic so I read this with interest and think many people in the same boat could get a lot from it. Sol has some very particular opinions, which is not surprising, so there may be a few bits of advice here that don’t quite click for you, but it’s pretty simple to take what is useful and ignore the rest if you prefer.
