À propos de ce contenu audio

 A revolutionary way to approach the challenges of making and maintaining meaningful friendships.

There is an assumption that good, worthwhile friendships should come easily. However, for neurodivergent adults, friendship can be hard. From differences in the parts of the brain that are vital to managing the logistics of a fulfilling social life to difficulty with self-regulation, the way neurodiverse individuals experience social bonding and connection can feel unintuitive.

Written by a social emotional learning expert, Friendship Skills for Neurodivergent Adults is a guide to navigate these differences, broken into three parts:
· How friendship works
· How to find your people
· How connecting will get you in motion

Each part offers simple, science-based, practical advice including scripts, tips and strategies to combat loneliness and help you find the belonging and support of lifelong friendships. By the end of this book, you will feel less alone, and have the tools to understand the unique way you can approach friendship.©2026 Caroline Maguire (P)2026 Little, Brown Book Group Limited Psychologie Psychologie et psychiatrie Relations Santé de l'enfant Santé mentale

Commentaires

For autistic, ADHD and AuDHD adults who want practical guidance for real connection - this book was written with you in mind (Jessica McCabe, New York Times bestselling author of 'How to ADHD')
Caroline Maguire is a relationship guru for anyone with a neurodiversity, especially those with ADHD and anxiety. Her book is an extraordinary offering full of warmth, insight and depth. It's a useful and fun must-read (Dr. Ned Hallowell, New York Times bestselling co-author of 'Driven to Distraction' and 'ADHD 2.0')
As an autistic ADHD therapist and coach who spent decades feeling like an alien in my own life, I know how brutal friendship can feel for neurodivergent adults. Friendship Skills for Neurodivergent Adults gives autistic and ADHD adults something we rarely get: concrete language; permission to honor our sensory and social limits; and a way to build real connection without masking ourselves into burnout. Caroline treats autistic and otherwise neurodivergent people as worthy of love exactly as we are, then walks readers through small, doable steps that make belonging feel possible instead of out of reach (Patrick Casale, AuDHD mental health therapist, neurodivergent business coach, TEDx speaker, and host of the All Things Private Practice and Divergent Conversations podcasts)
Friendship Skills for Neurodivergent Adults is the kind of book that meets you where you are. Caroline Maguire breaks down social concepts with clarity, compassion and metaphor in a way that feels genuinely respectful to neurodivergent experience. Nothing here is patronising or prescriptive - it's practical, hopeful and deeply human. She names the realities so many of us carry while offering clear paths toward friendship that don't ask you to mask or contort yourself. A needed and affirming guide for our community (Megan Anna Neff, PsyD, clinical psychologist; author of 'Self-Care for Autistic People'; and founder of Neurodivergent Insights)
Friendship can be difficult for the neurodivergent. Thankfully, Caroline Maguire provides us with the strategies and tools needed to rise to the challenge! In Friendship Skills for Neurodivergent Adults, she shares meaningful ideas and actionable exercises that help us connect with others, exploring everything from friendship anxiety, masking (and unmasking), how to tell if someone will be a good friend, and friendship maintenance. And the book is written in a neurodiverse-friendly way that chunks information for easy processing, and revisits key concepts to make sure we remember them. It's great! Buy this book! (Brendan Mahan, host of the ADHD Essentials Podcast)
