Missed: A Lifetime Without an Autism Diagnosis", by Ayah Alhyani. - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Millions of adults have spent entire lifetimes navigating a world that was never built for how their minds actually work - and no one, including doctors, ever told them why.

MISSED tells the story of the adults autism forgot: the quiet, capable, exhausted people who were labeled too sensitive, too intense, or simply difficult, and who spent decades masking a difference no one had given them the language to name.

Drawing on real, recurring patterns from adults across genders, cultures, and generations, this book traces how autism hides in plain sight in adulthood - behind fluent speech, steady careers, and years of quiet coping - and explores why so many were missed by the very systems meant to recognize them.
