Synopsis
The empowering and accessible book on ADHD, autism, and neurodivergence for anyone looking for a diagnosis, trying to make sense of one, or trying to be a better ally.
'This book will change lives! A cracking read and a must for folks with brains who do things differently' Heidi Mavir, bestselling author of Your Child is Not Broken
'I loved it… this book is comforting and clever, but most of all kind' Daisy Buchanan, author of Insatiable and Careering
Ellie was 24 when she learned she wasn't broken, she was neurodivergent.
Her late diagnosis of ADHD and autism was like a lightbulb being switched on and she could finally start to heal from the trauma of being un-diagnosed and mis-understood for so long.
Since getting her diagnosis, Ellie has made it her mission to change the way we think about autism, ADHD and neurodivergence and in UNMASKED, she shares what she has learned along her journey.
Written in a bite-sized style for whizzy brains like hers, Ellie shares chapters on:
· Mental health and how to look after it
· Ableism and pretty privilege
· Masking (and unmaksing)
· The diagnostic process (including the importance of self-diagnosis)
· How to navigate the workplace
Clear and insightful, UNMASKED is the practical guide to ADHD and autism to help us all better understand and celebrate neurodivergence, and ultimately make the world a more inclusive place.
Whether you are neurodivergent, suspect you might be, or want to be a better ally, UNMASKED will help you make sense of it all, and put the power in your hands.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The go-to book on neurodivergence for anyone looking for a diagnosis, trying to make sense of one, or trying to be a better allyIn 2021 Ellie was diagnosed with autism and ADHD and although it felt like the light had finally been switched on and she wasn't just 'broken', the room before her was messy from a lifetime of being misunderstood. She quickly found that she wasn't the only one, in fact 80% of autistic females remain undiagnosed at age 18 and only 8% of adults affected by ADHD have a formal diagnosis. Even with a diagnosis, most are left asking, what now?Ellie's mission is to change that. To challenge the common misconceptions about neurodivergent conditions that are preventing marginalised people get the diagnosis they need, and to provide simple, actionable resources so that they can live without the fear and shame that she did.UNMASKED is Ellie's kind and supportive guide that sheds light on everything from masking to the diagnostic process and from sensory overload to navigating the workplace, so that every reader can better understand themselves and others, and ultimately, make society more inclusive.
