Scans_Daily

La Différence Invisible is a graphic novel written and drawn by Mademoiselle Caroline in collaboration with Julie Dachez about her life experience as a young woman with Asperger's Syndrome, oh and about France's backwards ways concerning autism diagnosis and management.
It was published by Delcourt Éditions in 2016.

When I first read it, I didn't like it much because it came into my life a bit too late and the protagonist's experience didn't resonate with mine... apart from this very beginning. The sensory overload teetering on meltdown territory felt spot-on to me. I remember thinking "This is Hell. No, wait, it's worse: this is reality. And it would still be my reality too without a diagnosis and coping strategies."

( first 12 pages out of near 200 (I hope the scans aren't too big?) )

So... spookier than any Halloween horror story, this is scary because it's true? Nah, probably not. OK honestly I don't know who'll want to read this story, it's probably way too niche, but, uh, I still wanted to share it.
