AUTOLOGY: The Complete, Indispensable Field-Guide for Successfully Navigating the Social Terrain
Friendships. Family. Partners. Neighbours. Colleagues. Coffee Baristas. The best bits of life usually involve other people. Yet, if socialisation is the defining hallmark of the human species, then to be born with the key social differences of autism is about as (cruelly? ironically?) dis-abling as it gets. This is where Ben Aadario (real-life autistic, and author of âThe Rules of Being Autisticâ series) offers a unique advantage to the curious (and brave) autistic reader â in explaining the wealth of everyday âinvisibleâ mechanics of socialisation. Clarifying all the unvoiced truths that caregivers forgot to teach, Ben Aadario adopts a stance akin to a social anthropologist, zoologist or even curious visiting alien.

Spectrumites: Life unDiagnosed â Understanding inVisible Late Diagnosis Autism & Aspergerâs Autistic Tendencies
Growing up, I felt stupid. Oh, so stupid. Like I didnât fit in. It was as if Iâd been dropped in to suburbia from another planet, an alien. Perhaps if I had had a major meltdown I would have flagged the help I desperately needed. But, no, I suffered. I felt so alone, lost. There was no-one else like me. I hid behind a mask and adhered to society norms of being a âmale-worker-robot-personâ in middle-class society. Fortunately (or not) I was able to mask really well, and hide myself away. I built a life, a job, a house, had a child, all the usual things people aspire to. On the surface, all was normal, I just thought I was different, not less, just different, but didnât know why. I could never understand the way people reacted to me. I was being nice, but still they didnât like me, as if I had hurt someone close to them..

LOVE, LIFE, ASPIE: An Autistic Woman's Memoir of Love, Resilience & Growth
As I write this book, I want to clarify right now as I do this for you all to enjoy the read that I'm no medical doctor, I'm your normal Jo Blogs, sharing my lived experiences as a young autistic female who's now recently been diagnosed with ADHD on September 12, 2022. If you see any signs or symptoms based on the everyday topics that I've shared in the past or present, don't be afraid to ask for help, as you're not alone, and do seek professional advice or medical attention, as I don't condone self-harm. I would advise any of you who are struggling right now to seek professional help from a medical team as soon as possible. I, Kerrin Maclean, don't provide any medical advice or legal advice for that matter, nor do I provide any legal advice or services. I instead provide general information about autism and mental health as a service to the communities I'm in and share my everyday life experiences that I go through on a daily basis as an autistic and female with ADHD.
