Opening Boxes is part memoir, part guidebook for anyone navigating life with autism-whether diagnosed late in life or supporting someone who is. With warmth, humor, and hard-won insight, Jay Rothman offers a candid look at what it's like to discover you're autistic as an adult-and how that revelation reshapes everything from relationships and career to daily routines.
Drawing on his experiences with autism, OCD, and other intersecting diagnoses, Rothman delivers a roadmap for better communication, deeper self-understanding, and thriving in a world that often seems confusing or overwhelming. Opening Boxes is a practical, personal, and deeply human book that will resonate with autistic readers, neurotypicals, families, educators, and professionals alike.
Whether you're autistic, suspect you might be, or simply want to be a better ally, this book offers tools, stories, and perspectives that open minds-and hearts.
