Speechless: How Undiagnosed Asperger's Almost Destroyed My Family by Veronica Meyers
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 265 KB
Overview: On the outside, Veronica Meyers' family might have seemed normal, but on the inside, they were suffering. As a child, Veronica began to realize that her family was different from other families, lacking in emotional warmth and closeness. Her authoritarian military father and her submissive, nervous mother weren't able to nurture Veronica and her older sister, Victoria.
As Veronica continued on to college and a career, she struggled with social difficulties, including problems with occasional mutism, leading to fraught employment situations, dating and friendships. While appearing to be normal, even the relationship with her sister was complicated. A backpacking trip in Alaska together, supposed to be an opportunity for bonding, led to a car accident in which Veronica, the passenger, sustained a serious brain injury.
As Veronica struggled with the consequences of her injury, she was determined to understand more about her family dynamics. In the process, she uncovered truths about her changing brain, her sister’s role in the accident, her mother’s deteriorating mental health, and her father’s denial of reality.
“This intensely personal and insightful story has given me new perspective about how whole family’s function when struggling with undiagnosed autism. I found myself deeply drawn to Veronica’s personal account of what that family looks like trying to find their place within society while also trying to find a way to relate to one another within their own family.”
