Review of 'Unmasking Autism' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

A non pathologizing first person account of the experience of an autistic person identifying their autism, the mask of neurotypical behavior they were forced to wear, and the wonderful person they blossomed into when they began to leave that mask behind. Supported by life experiences of other autistics, centering the experiences of intersectional autistics like those who are Black and brown, Deaf and Blind, transgender and more. Filled with hundreds of citations to autistic authors and scientific research. I found this book immensely helpful and an autistic person trying to unmask, and have ordered a copy for my therapist.
