The story of the Burning Child and the Boiling Man: A Memoir About Surviving Survival (Neurospice Book 1)

This book follows an alien human boy through a childhood he never knew wasn’t normal.This was just how life was supposed to be, he thought.That is, until he encountered normal for the first time.By then, he’d spent half his life as someone who didn’t know who he was on the inside or why.Someone who still doubts that he fully does.It is a book about healing the wounds that cannot be seen through the naked eyes.The subtle things that don’t destroy your body but erode your identity over time.A family tragedy that was never allowed to be considered one.It is a story about children that survived storms and the adults that emerged on the other side.A tale about trying to reconstruct a normal life afterwards.These are my memories, and this is a memoir.It was mine, and my siblings.But the words are no longer just mine.The tree fell in the forest.Did it make a sound?It depends on the listener.Or in this case, the reader.TLDR: This is a memoir about being AuDHD and Neurospicy in a Neurotypical world. It started out as a memory brain dump, but then it became something else over the course of 12 years. Hopefully it became a story rather than a recital of events. It isn't a normal story, if it is one.But honestly, is anyone out there actually normal? I think our definition of normal is just the average of all the extremes, and we're stuck with the end result of an average humanity that doesn't exist in reality.Much like nobody has 2.5 children.
