Am I Normal? - Dr Alex George

29.49 €

'The world can feel a hard place at times, who hasn't asked themselves 'Is it me?' How wonderfully reassuring to have Dr Alex ask those same questions with his trademark warmth and honesty. A must read for everyone trying their best at life.' DR JULIE SMITH'This is the story of all of the ways in which I didn't fit in and of all the things I would rather change about the world, than myself.'How many of us have at some time wondered 'Am I Normal?' And yet, our society is set up in such a way that there is very little room for difference or quirks or for us to question what normal really is. In this powerful, honest, and ultimately comforting book, mental fitness advocate and former A&E doctor Dr Alex George explores what it means to be "normal" in a society that often fails to embrace any kind of straying from the accepted path laid out by the expectations of others. After years spent trying to fit the mould of what others expected of him, Alex's ADHD diagnosis became a turning point - not just in understanding himself, or helping him navigate the highs and lows he had experienced in childhood, whilst working in A&E and after the devastating loss of his brother, but in challenging the systems and society that marginalise so many. This is a book that will give hope to anyone who has ever felt different and help you realise that your version of your normal is enough.
