Review: Heal Your Nervous System: The 5–Stage Plan to Reverse Nervous System Dysregulation

Heal Your Nervous System: The 5–Stage Plan to Reverse Nervous System Dysregulation by Linnea Passaler
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Years ago I had read a book called "The highly sensitive person," and since then I've been wondering if perhaps, after so many years (it's a 1996 book) we can talk about people on the autism spectrum, partly because the symptoms seem to me to be quite similar in some ways. There is also the possibility that we finally delve into the "autistic but extroverted" person as well, which seems an almost impossible condition, but I would say quite present, based on my experience as a psychologist also.
Anyway, this book is well written, provides self-diagnosis tools and several "survival" strategies as it were. I just wouldn't sell it as new idea.

Anni fa avevo letto un libro che si chiamava "The highly sensitive person" ed é da allora che mi chiedo se forse, dopo tanti anni (é un libro del 1996) si possa parlare di persone sullo spettro autistico, anche perché i sintomi mi sembrano parecchio simili per certi versi. C'é anche la possibilitá che si approfondisca finalmente anche la persona "autistica ma estroversa" che sembra una condizione quasi impossibile, ma direi piuttosto presente, basandomi sulla mia esperienza di psicologa.
Comunque questo libro é scritto bene, fornisce strumenti di autodiagnosi e parecchie strategie "di sopravvivenza" come dire. Solo che non lo venderei come una novitá.

I received from the Publisher a complimentary digital advanced review copy of the book in exchange for a honest review.
