Finally, a comprehensive guide specifically for teens navigating high school with both autism and ADHD. This groundbreaking playbook transforms the overwhelming challenge of managing competing neurological needs into practical, teen-tested strategies that actually work.

Inside this essential guide, you'll discover:

Executive Function Mastery — Break through the wall of awful, conquer homework paralysis, and build your external brain with apps and systems designed for AUDHD minds

Sensory Survival Skills — Create sensory-friendly zones, manage overload while seeking stimulation, and develop your personalized sensory diet for school success

Social Navigation Tools — Decode neurotypical communication, master the art of info-dumping, handle rejection sensitive dysphoria, and find your neurodivergent tribe

Energy Management Systems — Learn spoon theory, prevent burnout, recognize meltdowns versus hyperactive episodes, and create sustainable masking strategies

Academic Accommodations — Advocate for your needs, implement AUDHD-friendly study methods, and use the Pomodoro-Plus technique for time blindness

Crisis Planning Resources — Build emergency protocols, develop regulation strategies, and create your personal AUDHD manual for others

This book addresses the unique paradox of craving routine while needing novelty, requiring structure but resisting rigidity, and seeking connection while needing solitude. Each chapter includes Real Talk boxes from AUDHD teens, Try This exercises, Myth Busters correcting misconceptions, and Parent/Teacher Notes for better understanding.

Stop trying to fit into neurotypical systems. Start building a life that works for your beautifully complex AUDHD brain. This isn't about fixing you—you're not broken. It's about understanding your unique wiring and creating strategies that honor both your autistic need for predictability and your ADHD need for flexibility.

Perfect for teens 13–18 with AUDHD, their parents, teachers, counselors, and anyone supporting neurodivergent youth through the challenging high school years.
