Painful, personal account of one woman's midlife discovery that she's autistic. Her story is very well written since she's already a journalist and writer. She takes us through her first year, beginning with the news of her 'official' autism assessment while she and her husband are on holiday.
Like the so-called autism 'spectrum' that we all assume is linear (it's not)... her story of this life-changing/life-affirming year is also not told in linear fashion. We live with her in her thoughts, and increasingly her emotions as she haltingly uncovers them. As with many autistic people, she's not necessarily well-acquainted with them as if they are distant cousins she barely knows.
We share in the growth and evolution of her experiences with herself, her family, especially with her husband, Tim, to whom this book is lovingly and justifiably dedicated. It's a story of sorting out what fits and what doesn't. Letting go of what's not meant for her while embracing a life and relationships that are, deeply inspired me! Autism can be such a super power, as Ms. Greta Thunberg told us.
These days, more and more adults, even seniors, are learning for the first time that they are wired differently than 'neurotypical' people. And that realization can be a wonderful gift!
