The Unmasking Workbook for Autistic Adults - Jessica Penot

Let this workbook guide you toward your authentic, autistic self. You don’t have to hide anymore. If you grew up before the neurodiversity movement, chances are you were taught at an early age that your autistic traits were “wrong” or “bad.” Whether it was stimming, difficulties with making small talk, avoiding eye contact, sensitivities to loud sounds or certain textures, or even talking passionately about the things you care about—somewhere along the way you learned to mask these aspects of yourself to better fit in, avoid bullying from other kids, and in some cases to even gain the love of your own parents. The problem is that, over time, masking can lead to higher levels of stress, burnout, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and depression. So how can you be your authentic self and still succeed and thrive in a neurotypical world? Written by a therapist who is actually autistic, this neurodiversity-affirming workbook offers skills to help you cultivate self-acceptance, manage intense emotions, and be your own advocate when needed. You’ll take a good look at the situations or people that caused you to mask in the first place. You’ll also discover: How to set and achieve your own authentic goals—with a clear view of who you are and what you care about Why self-love and self-acceptance is so important for autistic folks How to live your life on your own terms, while self-advocating for accommodations How to let go of old, hurtful messages about autistic people that you’ve internalized How autism can be both a strength and a disability Strategies to cope with burnout or meltdowns How to be assertive and set boundaries with others  You don’t have to mask, hide, or camouflage any longer. Let this workbook guide you on a journey of self-discovery and acceptance. You are worthy of it. And you deserve it.

Acid For The Children - The autobiography of Flea, the Red Hot Chili Peppers legend - Flea

Flea, the iconic bassist and co-founder, alongside Anthony Kiedis, of the immortal Red Hot Chili Peppers finally tells his fascinating origin story, complete with all the dizzying highs and the gutter lows you'd expect from an LA street rat turned world-famous rock star. Michael Peter Balzary was born in Melbourne, Australia, on October 16, 1962. His more famous stage name, Flea, and his wild ride as the renowned bass player for the Red Hot Chili Peppers was in a far and distant future. Little Michael from Oz moved with his very conservative, very normal family to Westchester, New York, where life as he knew it was soon turned upside down. His parents split up and he and his sister moved into the home of his mother's free-wheeling, jazz musician boyfriend - trading in rules, stability, and barbecues for bohemian values, wildness, and Sunday afternoon jazz parties where booze, weed, and music flowed in equal measure. There began Michael's life-long journey to channel all the frustration, loneliness, love, and joy he felt into incredible rhythm. When Michael's family moved to Los Angeles in 1972, his home situation was rockier than ever. He sought out a sense of belonging elsewhere, spending most of his days partying, playing basketball, and committing petty crimes. At Fairfax High School, he met another social outcast, Anthony Kiedis, who quickly became his soul brother, the yin to his yang, his partner in mischief. Michael joined some bands, fell in love with performing, and honed his skills. But it wasn't until the night when Anthony, excited after catching a Grandmaster Flash concert, suggested they start their own band that he is handed the magic key to the cosmic kingdom. Acid for the Children is as raw, entertaining and wildly unpredictable as its author. It's both a tenderly evocative coming of age story and a raucous love letter to the power of music and creativity

And you are taught that empathy and emotional awareness are liabilities, rather than assets. But there''s another way to go through life-one in which you can take care of yourself, first and foremost.Let this book guide you toward a new way of being.

Acid For The Children - Vzpomínky - Flea

Věhlasný baskytarista a spoluzakladatel kapely Red Hot Chili Peppers vypráví svůj fascinující příběh z mládí s veškerými překotnými vzestupy a strmými pády, které byste od pouliční krysy z L. A., z níž se stala světoznámá rocková hvězda, chtěli slyšet.Acid for the Children je hluboce osobní zpovědí, ve které Flea provází čtenáře svým raným obdobím dospívání, během něhož se přestěhoval z Austrálie na předměstí New Yorku a následně do Los Angeles. Směsí vtipných historek, poetických úvah a fantasmagorií popisuje události, které pro něj byly jako pro hudebníka a mladého muže formativní. Jeho zasněná, jazzem prosáklá próza představuje Los Angeles 70. a 80. let 20. století s veškerou drsností,nebezpečím a zábavou. V komunitě hudebníků, umělců a feťáků žijících rovněž na okraji společnosti našel mladý Flea, který se snažil uniknout z nestabilního domova, rodinu. Bavil se na večírcích a páchal drobné výtržnosti. Hlubší smysl našel až v hudbě, která mu poskytla prostor pro vyjádření frustrací – osamělosti a lásky – a přinesla zásadní životní změnu, když se svými nejlepšími kamarády založil kapelu, z níž vzešli Red Hot Chili Peppers.Tyto memoáry s úvodní básní od Patti Smith představují debut nového literárního hlasu, jehož próza je stejně zábavná a nepředvídatelná jako autor sám. Jedná se o sugestivní příběh o dospívání a zároveň divoký milostný dopis adresovaný síle hudby a tvořivosti od jednoho z nejslavnějších hudebníků naší doby.Úvodní báseň Patti Smith
