Puberty and profound autism
The body changes and it cannot be explained. With growing strength, anticipation is the only option.
Puberty is a broad neurological change, not simply a hormonal phase. The guide covers changes in sleep, sensory regulation and hormones, as well as the subjects usually avoided: menstruation, sexuality and growing physical strength. It also includes a section on the parent's grief and on why puberty is a turning point in the service system.
