How Not to Fit In
Written by two late-diagnosed neurodivergent women and the founders of fast-growing online community @IAmPayingAttention, this is an handbook-meets-rallying cry. Foregrounding real experiences with autism and ADHD, this book explores the journey of discovering, accepting and flourishing with your neurodivergent brain. It explores why getting diagnosis can be so fraught and gendered, and how to navigate a world which centres neurotypical brains in the realms of relationships, careers, friendships and finances. By reading this book, you’ll start to understand why so many people are being diagnosed with ADHD and autism right now, learn the impact that not knowing your own brain can have on your mental health, find the confidence to ask for accommodations and adjustments at work – without apologising, and much more.
