But no matter where you are in the unmasking process, there is still work to be done.

They need more than internal healing - they need practical tools to translate acceptance into assertiveness and interpersonal effectiveness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this book, Devon Price helps you advocate for your needs and invent new ways of living, loving and being that work for you, using five key skills:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e· Acceptance of change, loss, and uncertainty\u003cbr\u003e· Engagement in productive conflict, discussion, and disagreement\u003cbr\u003e· Transgression of unfair rules, demands, and social expectations\u003cbr\u003e· Tolerance of distress, disagreement, or being disliked\u003cbr\u003e· Creation of new accommodations, relationship structures, and new ways of living\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith powerful insights and transformative resources, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eUnmasking for Life \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis a practical guide to living a fully realised Autistic life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e***\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ePRAISE FOR \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003eUNMASKING AUTISM:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e''Outstanding.'''' -Fern Brady, author of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003eStrong Female Character\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e''Reading this felt like being at home - I didn''t realise how much I masked.
