But Everyone Feels This Way: How an Autism Diagnosis Saved My Life by Paige Layle

4.0
A very informative and moving description of life with autism. Paige describes how her thoughts and experiences are shaped by autism, in a very visceral and creative way. The content is quite dark, as Paige details her struggles with mental health and social isolation even after being diagnosed with autism. I'm glad I read it, but I recommend it with caution due to the heavy topics covered.
Graphic: Ableism, Confinement, Mental illness, Suicidal thoughts, Forced institutionalization, and Suicide attempt
