Young, Autistic and ADHD

Moving into adulthood when you’re multiply-neurodivergent

Jessica Kingsley Publishers

Navigating life as a young autistic person with ADHD isn’t always easy. Luckily, Sarah Boon is here to share her own experiences, helping you to explore how autism and ADHD overlap and identify the strategies that will make day-to-day life easier.

With chapters focused on adulting, relationships and communication, emotional wellbeing, and mental health, navigating the workplace and more, this book offers practical, tried-and-tested guidance to help you understand your autism and ADHD and overcome some of the hurdles that adulthood may throw your way.

Accessible and supportive, Young, Autistic and ADHD is the ultimate companion guide for autistic ADHDers, giving you all the advice, you need to celebrate your neurodivergent self.

Young, Autistic and ADHD is an extremely assuring and neurodiversity-affirming guide that many of us would have benefitted from as teenagers. Sarah Boon confidently talks us through the complicated nature of adolescence and the very underdiscussed ways it combines with being multiply neurodivergent. Charli Clement, autistic-ADHD activist & author of All Tangled Up in Autism & Chronic Illness
Both affirming and educational, ‘Young, Autistic and ADHD' offers a deep dive into what it means to be both autistic and ADHD, delivered with compassion and clarity Emily Katy, author of Girl Unmasked.

Sarah is a late-discovered autistic ADHDer who has a Masters in the Psychology of Education and a PgCert in Autism. Sarah provides consultancy on autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and neurodiversity. Sarah also has professional experience, academic knowledge and personal experiences of both autism and ADHD alongside sharing her thoughts about neurodiversity on her blog autisticallysarah.com.
