Wrong Planet / Right Mind: Dispatches from a Late-Diagnosed Autistic on Logic, Masking, and the Life Nobody Explained - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

“It took me forty-eight years to understand that the problem wasn’t me.”

Christian Gajewski has worked in healthcare for over 25 years, is a military veteran, and a certified neurodiversity coach. At forty-eight, an autism diagnosis changed the question: not “what is wrong with me”, but “why did the world demand that I adapt to a shape that was never mine”.

Wrong Planet / Right Mind is an account of that life from the inside. How autistic burnout hides behind thirty years of wrong diagnoses. How high analytical intelligence can coexist with a complete shutdown in the face of other people’s emotions. How the masking that kept you functional is consuming you from within.

This is not a book about how to heal. It’s a book for those who always believed the problem was them, and are starting to wonder if maybe they were wrong.
