What readers are saying.

"There's no condescension here, no fluff, no 'just try harder' advice. What Natalie Diggins offers instead is real-world insight—tools that feel like they were made by someone who's been through the fire and figured out how to live with their wiring, not in spite of it."

"This book is a must-read for anyone with autism in their life, they themselves or people they love and want to support. I feel much better prepared to recognize and be aware of their needs."

"The Autistic Adult's Toolbox is fantastic! As a clinical and school psychologist, I highly recommend [it] for anyone who works with Autistic children, youth, and adults as well as their families and loved ones… This book will be in my recommendations for families and essential reading for psychologists in training under my supervision."

"This book is essential reading for any and every ND. Honestly, this book should be an essential read for any NT, regardless of having a ND in your life or not… I recommended this book to a NT friend and co-worker so that they could better understand, relate to and navigate working with both their ND boss and me!"

"A practical and compassionate guide to navigating life, full of insights about self-awareness and self-care, whether you identify as neurotypical or neurodivergent. From building a 'sensory diet' to building friendships that truly work for you, it offers valuable techniques for understanding yourself and engaging with the world more intentionally."

"I have read this cover to cover twice. There is something in here for us all… there is also a lot in here of value for the introverted as well, irrespective of diagnosis."

"Exactly what the title promises: a toolbox of strengths-based, practical strategies that make daily life more manageable for autistic adults. Without asking them to change themselves… You get real-world tools: checklists, scripts, and exercises that can be practiced right away."
