Understanding neurodiversity and stress. A self-help book for children and young people

When everyone is special, no one is different.

Every person perceives the world in their own way – some more intensely, some less so. For some, noises can be too loud, lights too bright, or touch unpleasant. Others overlook important details or have a delayed perception of stimuli. But what does this all mean for our daily lives? Why do some people experience more stress than others? And how can we deal with it?

This book helps children and young people to better understand their own perceptions. It shows why people react so differently to stimuli and explains the role our nervous system plays in this. Clear explanations, vivid examples and creative illustrations make it easy to understand why some people are particularly sensitive to their environment – and why this has nothing to do with ‘right’ or ‘wrong’.

• How does our nervous system work, and why does it sometimes overreact?
• Why can stress, anxiety, and anger be so overwhelming?
• What strategies help us to improve self-regulation and experience less stress?

An interactive practical section includes experiments and exercises that can be carried out alone or with support. These are designed to help us explore our own perceptions, find solutions for moments of stress, and develop a more relaxed approach to challenging situations.
‘Our brain is open to new things. It can always learn new things. It can unlearn things and relearn them. Our brain can form new connections. And then we can find new solutions and ways forward. We can always develop further!
