informative
2.5
This book was a bit different than I expected and I wish I had enjoyed it more, but it just didn't hit me in the right way I guess.
This book could definitely still benefit other people though, because it has some good quotes and advice in it. Note the use of the word some there...
Because there was a section in this book that rubbed me the wrong way which was the section about avoiding (online) self diagnosis. As a disabled person myself, I very much advocate for self diagnosis. I self diagnosed myself with autism about a year before I actually managed to get access to getting a diagnosis. Self diagnosis can literally save people's lives. So yeah, safe to say that I really didn't like that particular section.
Anyway, the book was still quite informational and it definitely helped me figure some stuff out, but again it just didn't hit me in the right way.
