Beskrivning
When Chloé Hayden was a teenager, her goal wasn't to win an Emmy (well, not out loud). It was to get out of bed, get dressed and brush her teeth. Being autistic, ADHD and with a multitude of chronic illnesses, her body was in a constant state of fight-or-flight. She struggled to go to school, or even to the supermarket on her own. Today, Chloé's life looks vastly different (though even now, putting the kettle on every morning is a win). She has a life that allows her to grow, feel safe, make her own decisions and pursue the things that matter to her.Growing Pains is about travelling the bumpy road to adulthood in a neurotypical world. It's about making your own choices, setting goals and building a life that aligns with your needs and wants. It's about setting up support systems and having the courage to step outside your comfort zone to see what's possible. Filled with Chloé's personal stories as well as practical advice, Growing Pains explores relationships, work, self-care, chronic illness and more, such as how to: •Find neuro-affirming communities where you feel seen and known •Maintain your mental health daily, not just when you reach crisis •Look after yourself in ways that are beneficial and doable •Advocate for yourself in the workplace •Connect with friends and romantic partners • Achieve what you want and need, with the right support around you. Honest, funny and empowering, Growing Pains shows neurodivergent readers how to step forward in a world that is constantly saying 'you can't'. And slowly, one day, you'll realise a life you once thought impossible is the one you are living.
