Finding Yourself Within Disability - by Rebecca Sullivan (Paperback)

About the Book

A positive and affirming guidebook on how you can look after your disabled self with practical tips, tricks and strategies to help you put yourself first, and overcome limiting beliefs about you and your disability.

Book Synopsis

Due to stigma, self-esteem, or accessibility issues, disabled adults can often find it difficult to navigate the world by themselves, let alone feel comfortable enough in their disabled identity to practice proper self-care. This doesn't have to be the case. This book is the best place to start in the journey to discovering who you are as a disabled person, how to break away from internalized negativity, and be kinder to yourself.

From disability advocate Rebecca Sullivan, this positive and practical guide offers disabled adults valuable guidance on how to add self-care into their everyday routine. It offers specific advice tailored to disabled adults including chapters on overcoming limiting beliefs, ableism, accessibility, navigating the world and finding disabled joy.
