Come inside the mind and world of Travis. Travis lives with autism among many other things. Experience the world from the autistic perspective through his eyes. Learn about what it is like to go through puberty with autism. Learn how Travis escapes into his imagination to create a make-believe world to help him cope with autism, and learn about quality of life issues autistic people experience.
This book will dive into the question of why we might see more aggression at puberty for someone with autism. Already feeling confused in a world they don't understand, autistic people experience physical changes in their body that lead to emotional changes they might not know how to handle. In this book Travis explains how those physical changes developed different emotions in him that he has difficulty processing. Learn how he is processing those emotions and understanding the changing body and mind as it went through puberty.
Then learn how Travis escapes into his imagination to create a make-believe imaginary world that helps him feel more safe and comfortable living with autism. When Travis doesn't understand things he creates a make-believe world to help him cope. That make-believe world is one of the key factors in him still being alive today. He will start by explaining the basics of that make-believe world, how it functions, and how special interests come into play. Then he will move into more advanced issues with escaping into imagination to help him get through social scenarios each day. Next, he will explain how it is sometimes difficult to confuse escaping into imagination with psychosis that he experiences from mental illness.
This book concludes with a chapter on what Travis thinks good quality of life would mean for him and autistic people. He is always interested in improving the quality of life people with autism experience. Travis gives his thoughts and ideas on what it might mean to lead a happy life for himself and others on the autism spectrum.
