Looking to understand neurodiversity better? Here's a book rec: "Unmasked" by Ellie Middleton📚.

This is an accessible guide to understanding neurodivergence, written from lived-experience. It covers topics like diagnosis, masking, ableism, and navigating the workplace as a neurodivergent person. A great starting point for anyone learning about their own neurodivergence or someone else's. Do you have any favourite books about neurodivergence? Let us know in the comments 👇😊.
