Are you in a neurodivergent (ND) relationship? One thing ND couples have in common is a tendency to get their signals mixed up. You want to communicate clearly, but miss the mark time and time again. How can you turn mixed signals into fixed signals? You'll find answers in Relating while Autistic: Fixed Signals for Neurodivergent Couples, the third book of the series, Adulting While Autistic.Nowhere is communication more important than in a marriage or committed relationship. You may be in a ND relationship, wondering why it seems so hard to communicate with the one you love. Maybe you're not in a relationship yet, and you know you need some solid communication skills in place before you find the right one so you can make it work. This book is for you.Relating while Autistic offers practical tips, evidence-based strategies, and the keys couples need to unlock their best relationship. It's built on the science of human behavior, relationship research, and what the author has learned from her own twenty seven years in love in a brilliant and enduring ND marriage.Through "Red Lights/Green Lights" you'll learn effective communication strategies as well as what to avoid. The "What Shall We Talk About?" section has conversation starters for Family Meetings that open the gates to discussions about what's important to the two of you. "Date Night Themes" offer creative ideas to refresh and revive your relationship. Another way you'll learn to turn mixed signals into fixed signals is through the stories of four fictional couples. Each chapter also includes "They Say," stories shared by actual ND couples about what has worked in their relationships.This much needed resource is a delightful "how-to" relationship guide for autistic individuals and those who love them.

An intimate and evocative memoir one woman's experience with the universality of grief and the redemptive power of love as she endures her husband's 84-day battle with lung cancer.When Stephanie Catudal met Tommy (Rivs), a professional endurance athlete, she thought that the love, stability, and warmth she shared with her husband had finally dispelled her pent-up anger and grief over the loss of her father and her faith. But when Rivs became ill and was put into coma at the height of the pandemic, the painful memories of her childhood?watching her father die of cancer?came flooding back.Written with lush lyricism, Steph's account of how this crisis forced her to confront her past is raw, illuminating, and heartbreaking: her father's death that wrecked her faith in God and jumpstarted a decade of rebellion, including running away from home and living out of a van at age 16, struggling with alcoholism, and delving into the world of psychedelics to ease her pain. Sitting by Rivs's bedside, she grappled with the memories of the past and the uncertainties of the future while reckoning with the unknowns of her husband's illness. Rivs would endure a grueling 84 days in a medically induced coma, eventually undergoing chemo for the same illness that stole her father. Then, a medical miracle?Rivs emerged from his coma, regained his strength, and remains in full remission today.Like Cheryl Strayed's Wild, and Michelle Zauner's Crying in H Mart, Everything All At Once is a heart-wrenching and ultimately uplifting reflection on resilience and a powerful reminder that we can find healing no matter how broken we are.
Hey, I'm Jamie, a 29-year-old trans guy from the UK. I've been transitioning for 12 years now after realising I was trans (by accident!) at sixteen years old. I knew I was a boy since the age of four, but realised whilst growing up that I was different. It was only in my teens that I found the words to express who I was and what I needed to do. Since then, I've been on testosterone for more than a decade - I know, I can't believe it either - I've also had top and bottom surgery and legally changed my sex, so I know a few things about the transitioning process and being trans!I want to welcome you to The T in LGBT where you can explore and learn about so many topics surrounding gender identity: realising you're trans, starting hormones, considering surgery, and everything in between. Whether you're questioning your own identity and are looking for advice on certain stages of transition, or whether you're wanting to learn about the trans experience to support someone or understand allyship, I hope this book can be your one-stop guide to everything trans related.And don't just take my word for it either - this book is packed full of advice, tips, and the personal stories of a range of trans voices, because no one journey is the same.
Alle kan blive bedre til at forstå andre og se verden fra deres synsvinkel – også børn og unge med autisme.Empati hjælper os til at forstå andres følelser, tanker og handlinger. Det har mange børn og unge med autisme svært ved, men det betyder ikke, at de er ligeglade med andre og helt mangler empati og medfølelse.Empati kan trænes, og bogen giver gode strategier og værktøjer til at udvikle empati. Det er en svær opgave, men det er sjældent umuligt. Udviklingen af empati sker gradvis og hænger bl.a. sammen med barnets selvopfattelse og denkognitive udvikling.Når man træner empati med børn, styrker man også sin egen empati og ser verden fra barnets perspektiv. Man taler om det dobbelte empatiproblem, fordi voksne også har problemer med at forstå barnet med autisme.Empati hos børn og unge med autisme giver et nuanceret blik på empati og undersøger begrebet i forhold til hukommelse, tænkning, fleksibilitet, generalisering og abstraktion.Vanskeligheder med empati ses også ved mange andre udviklingsforstyrrelser. Bogens temaer og principper kan derfor bruges i mange sammenhænge, uanset barnets eller den unges diagnose, forstyrrelse eller kognitive modenhed.Bogen er til voksne, der er tæt på børn og unge med autisme i dagligdagen. Det er først og fremmest forældre og familie, pædagoger og lærere, men også psykologer og andet sundhedspersonale.

A profound new approach to healing trauma, grounded in a radical reframing of how we understand this nearly universal experienceFor centuries, we've been taught that being traumatized means we are somehow broken-and that trauma only happens to people who are too fragile or flawed to deal with hardship. But as a researcher, teacher, and survivor, Dr. MaryCatherine McDonald has learned that the only thing broken is our society's understanding of trauma. "The body's trauma response is designed to save our lives-and it does," she says. "It's not a sign of weakness, but of our function, strength, and amazing resilience."With Unbroken: The Trauma Response Is Never Wrong, Dr. McDonald overturns the misconceptions about trauma with the latest evidence from neuroscience and psychology-and shares tested practices and tools to help you work with your body's coping mechanisms to accelerate healing. Here, you'll explore: . What is trauma? The latest science that undoes the stigmas of shame, blame, and humiliation. Moral injury-having our basic sense of how the world should work overturned. The truth about triggers-what they really are and how they can guide the healing journey. Traumatic patterns-new findings to help break free from recurring habits and toxic dynamics. Why we can always rewrite our inner narratives, no matter how much time has passed . Finding a "relational home" for trauma-how we can help each other return to wholenessDr. McDonald's case studies reveal the many ways trauma can manifest and persist in our lives, yet there's one factor every case has in common: the trauma response itself reveals the path to healing. "Our traumatic experiences reveal that we can be bent, dented, or bruised," she says, "but we cannot be broken." For anyone who has gone through trauma or wants to help others who are struggling, here is an empowering resource for finding our way home to our bodies, rebuilding our relationships, and returning to full engagement with life.
