Language for the AuDHD experience

Agnes Gorgyan’s book explores the overlapping experiences of autism and ADHD, with attention to traits that can be missed by stereotypes or surface-level descriptions. It addresses time blindness, executive dysfunction, social misunderstandings, sensory and emotional experiences, masking, burnout, and the pressures of meeting expectations. The book frames self-awareness and recognition as its purpose, and includes practical strategies for everyday life alongside reflective prompts. Its focus is on describing lived experience beyond clinical checklists, while presenting a neuroaffirming perspective rather than a project of “fixing” the reader.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults exploring how autism and ADHD may overlap in their experience.
  • Readers seeking language for masking, burnout, sensory experiences, or executive-function challenges.
  • Those interested in reflective prompts and practical strategies for everyday life.

Book overview

The Book That Puts Words to What You Have Always Felt

You have always known you were different. You have spent years masking, pushing yourself to fit in, wondering why things that seem effortless for others take so much out of you. Maybe you have heard the words high-functioning, quirky, or too sensitive. Maybe you have been called intelligent but lazy, creative but inconsistent, capable but unreliable.

Maybe you were never given the full picture of who you are.

For many, discovering AuDHD (Autism and ADHD) feels like a missing puzzle piece finally clicking into place. But what comes next? Understanding yourself fully, beyond clinical checklists and surface-level traits. This book is the guide to the lived experience of AuDHD, validating the struggles, explaining the contradictions, and helping you see yourself clearly, perhaps for the first time.

  • Do you struggle with time blindness, executive dysfunction, and productivity?
  • Do you feel misunderstood in social settings, even when you are trying your best?
  • Do you experience burnout, overwhelm, and the need to withdraw but find it hard to explain why?
  • Have you spent years masking without realising it, trying to meet expectations that never felt natural?

You are not alone. And you are not broken.

This is not a self-help book. It is a self-recognition book.

  • A deep dive into AuDHD traits beyond stereotypes and surface-level explanations
  • An exploration of the emotional, sensory, and cognitive experiences unique to AuDHDers
  • The impact of masking, burnout, and societal expectations and how to reclaim your energy
  • A neuroaffirming perspective that prioritises self-awareness over fixing
  • Tried and tested strategies to help navigate everyday life
  • Reflective prompts to find yourself in the con

If you have been searching for the words to describe your experience, this book may be the reflection you need.
