ABOUT THE BOOK
When Lauren was a young child growing up in the 1980s and 90’s in a rural area in eastern Kentucky little was known about the Autism Spectrum in general, let alone the high functioning type of the disorder that Lauren has. Because of this Lauren often felt stigmatized for her condition in addition to feeling isolated and alone. Like many others with Autism Spectrum Disorders Lauren has faced her share of challenging symptoms and in this book, she shares her personal experience with High Functioning Autism and how it has impacted her life.
In this memoir book written by Lauren firsthand about her entire life she explains what it was like to live with autism spectrum disorder from a personal perspective and hopes to also educate others about the condition and erase the stigma associated with the disorder.
