Over the past few years, I’ve poured myself into writing books that don’t just talk about neurodivergence, but speak from the inside out. Each one carries a piece of my journey, a thread of the collective struggles we face, and most importantly, an invitation to imagine something better together.
If you’ve ever read my blogs or essays and thought, I wish there was more, then I’d love for you to explore my books. They’re written for the people who’ve lived these realities, for the families and allies who want to learn, and for the professionals who need to hear our truths unfiltered.
Here’s what I’ve written so far:
The New Normal: Autistic Musings On The Threat Of A Broken Society
A manifesto for embracing neurodivergence as part of the fabric of human life. It’s about moving away from deficit models and towards communities built on acceptance, connection, and possibility.
Unusual Medicine: Edsays On Autistic Identity And Drug Addiction
This book dives into the tangled relationship between psychiatry, neurodivergence, and lived experience. I reflect on my own encounters with the mental health system and call for approaches that honour our voices rather than silence them.
CAMHS In Crisis: Writing On The Failing Of CAMHS To Support Autistic People
An unflinching look at Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services in the UK. Based on lived experience and research, this book documents systemic failings and offers visions for what a humane, neurodivergent-competent service might look like.
A Guide To Autism And Psychosis: Personal And Professional Insights From A Psychotic Mind
Psychosis is still poorly understood, and autistic voices are often left out of the conversation. This guide offers insights into how the two can intersect, with practical guidance rooted in lived experience and compassion.
The Little Book Of Madness: Words About Madness, Autism, And The Liberation Of Bodyminds
Part memoir, part exploration of what it means to identify with madness. It’s an intimate and accessible look at psychosis, identity, and survival beyond pathologising frameworks.
Unashamed Autistic: Writings On The Nature Of Autism And Autistic Pride
This one is close to my heart. It’s about embracing autistic identity fully, rejecting shame, and standing proudly in who we are.
Each book is part of a bigger tapestry. Together, they trace a path through survival, critique, recovery, and celebration. They’re not written in the distant, clinical tone that so often dominates conversations about neurodivergence. They’re written in the messy, honest, human voice of someone who has lived it.
If you’ve already read one, I’d love it if you left a review or shared it with a friend. Reviews help others find these stories and every copy in someone’s hands means one more person is challenged to see neurodivergence differently.
Thank you, always, for walking this journey with me.
