Amazon Description for Anniversary Edition of “Going Over the Edge?” “‘Going Over the Edge?’ is bold, brave, and beautiful. I love how you define “Aspie” dynamics and create a language around stuff that is almost indescribable. I cried a bunch of times. It means so much that someone really understands what this life is like and can describe how the solution is more than the NeuroTypical (NT) being accommodating and understanding. I love hearing about the author’s personal experience and knowing that she gets it! I want my therapist to read this book.” “Dr. Marshack gives...

This book began as an act of witness—an attempt to capture what love looks like when it stretches beyond understanding, beyond diagnosis, beyond the neat definitions that so often fail real life. For more than half a century, Claire and Steven lived inside a marriage shaped by difference. What they did not know, for most of those years, was that Steven was on the autism spectrum—Autism Spectrum Disorder, Level 1. The late diagnosis reframed everything: the confusion, the distance, the loneliness, the love that endured anyway. This story is not a fairy tale. It does not promise perfect ...

You got the diagnosis. You knew that the other person was different or eccentric in many ways, but you didn’t know why or how. Now you know that you are living with something called obsessive compulsive personality disorder, Asperger syndrome, Asperger's disorder, autism spectrum disorder, schizoid personality disorder, or narcissistic personality disorder.

Neurodiverse couples have some of the funniest, warmest, most unexpectedly endearing relationship moments imaginable—yet until recently, few books captured the humor living inside these dynamics. This book was born from the laughter that kept showing up in coaching sessions, emails, conversations, and stories people shared about their day-to-day lives. Not the cruel humor that mocks or belittles, but the gentle humor that says: “Okay… this relationship is different. But different can be hilarious.” Over time, I began collecting moments—real ones, honest ones—where two people who...

This book analyzes the rude and critical natures of Aspie and OCPD husbands. It is intended to be a support guide for the nonspectrum and neurotypical partners who marry these men. The book is not intended to be listened to by a person with Asperger's syndrome or OCPD, as it puts names and labels to the abrasive and abusive behaviors that are typical with the brain wiring and genetics at the root of the spectrum disorders.

In dit luisterboek legt de bekende psycholoog Annette Heffels uit hoe simpel. Aan de hand van voorbeelden uit haar praktijk laat zij zien hoe stellen vriendelijker en begripvoller kunnen worden naar elkaar toe.
