Growing in to Autism
From the outside looking in, Sandra Thom-Jones was living a successful life: she had a great career, a beautiful home, a loving family and supportive friends. But from the inside looking out, she was struggling to make sense of her place in the world, constantly feeling overwhelmed and exhausted, and convinced that her challenges with daily life just meant that she had to try harder. In Growing in to Autism, Sandra tells the story of gradually realising she was autistic, and that she experienced the world in ways which were markedly different from non-autistic people. Applying her skills as an experienced and expert researcher, Sandra delved into the literature on autism in adults, learning much more than she had already known as a parent of two autistic boys.
