Dietary Changes Part: 2

  When I was in high school, during my second year, I found myself eating more fried foods and drinking more milk than usual. I thought it was okay, not the healthiest, but what school provides healthy food? They love promoting it, but they don’t necessarily enforce it. Everyone was fine eating it, so what could go wrong? I was eating spicy fried chicken sandwiches and cheese-stuffed pizza, and I learned that dipping them in ranch or blue cheese tasted good. I drink chocolate milk, and on Fridays, I treat myself to ice cream. The year before was exciting, my grades were great, and everything seemed new and exciting. Sophomore year became the opposite. I didn’t understand why, but it was like flipping a coin. Everything was exciting, but everything was boring; topics were not interesting, the teachers were even pissy and annoyingly difficult.

Book Recommendations

 

Hello Everyone!


I hope everyone is doing well. To be honest with you, my schedule has been all over the place lately so this time I'm providing you with recommendations for books that I have found written by people on the spectrum.

As a writer, I wanted to see who else on the spectrum is writing about autism. I have heard of a few people such as John Elder Robison with his book Look Me in the Eye, along with Dr. Temple Grandin who wrote multiple books on autism and animal rights as well as being a public speaker. Below I posted two of her books. I have a copy of her Thinking in Pictures.

After doing some googling I was pleased to find even more books on autism written by authors that are on the spectrum themselves. I absolutely love that there are so many out there, and hope that one day mine will be out there as well. There can never be too many books on autism, and every writer is going to have their own thoughts and experiences with the autistic spectrum.


As for me, currently, I'm reading But You Don’t Look Autistic At All by Bianca Toeps and I am enjoying it.


I also found an entire list! I may not get around to reading them all, at least not at once, but I will definitely attempt to read them because one is never done learning! Here is a link to the list of books that I found:

I do have a tendency to start reading a book while in the middle of reading another. I am also reading Deborah Harkness's A Discovery of Witches and Markus Zusak's The Book Thief in German.
