- person
- you
- meet,
- there

- countless

- people
- who
- pass
- as
- neurotypical.
- They
- don't
- fit
- the
- stereotypical
- mould
- of
- Autism
- and
- are
- often

- mask
- who
- they
- are,
- spending
- their
- entire
- lives
- trying
- to
- hide
- their
- Autistic
- traits.

- there
- is
- evidence
- that
- Autism
- remains
- significantly
- undiagnosed
- in
- women,
- people
- of
- colour,
- trans
- and
- gender
- non-conforming
- people,
- many
- of
- whom
- are
- only
- now
- starting
- to
- recognise
- those
- traits
- later
- in
- life.Blending
- cutting-edge
- research,
- personal
- insights
- and
- practical
- exercises
- for
- self-expression,
- Dr
- Devon
- Price
- examines
- the
- phenomenon
- of
- 'masking',
- making
- a
- passionate
- argument
- for
- radical
- authenticity
- and
- non-conformity.
- A
- powerful
- call
- for
- change,

- readers
- with
- the
- tools
- to
- uncover
- their
- true
- selves

- where
- everyone
- can
- thrive
