The World of Autistic Women and Girls

Why they are different and just right

Autistic women and girls are often diagnosed at a very late stage because their symptoms are inconspicuous at first glance and are often misinterpreted. “I’m different, I’m wrong”—many autistic women internalize this painful belief early on. They struggle against strong self-doubt with potential knock-on effects for their mental health. This book helps them to understand themselves better and to deal with stress. It also shows that although they are different, they are just right—because autism comes with many special strengths. - Based on the successful concept of The world of Women and Girls with ADHD - Based on the latest research in gender psychology - Written in a positive, empathetic, empowering tone • From the makers of the “Jung und Freudlos” podcast • For those affected and their caregivers • Offers insights, relieves burdens, and shows new approaches to everyday life
