ick Dubin has walked the
walk growing to adulthood
with Asperger's Syndrome,"
writes Robert A. Naseef, Ph.D., author,
psychologist and father of an adult
with autism. "Now as a professional, he
talks the talk."
Dubin wrote
the new Asperger
Syndrome and
Anxiety: A Guide
to Successful Stress
Management (Jessica
Kingsley Publishers;
$19.95).
This is the first
Nick Dubin
book to focus exclu-
sively on Asperger's and anxiety. Dubin
applies evidence-based treatments and
self-help strategies — offering practi-
cal advice on managing stress.
Research has shown that people with
AS are more likely to develop co-morbid
mental health issues like depression
and anxiety. People with AS must fit
into a world that seems totally foreign
to them, and this can increase feelings
of alienation and anxiety, making life's
challenges especially hard to cope with.
Until now, there has yet to be a book on
stress management for adults with AS.
As a person with AS who has
struggled with feelings of anxiety and
learned how to overcome them, Dubin
shares his own tried and tested solu-
tions along with up-to-date research
on stress management for individu-
als with AS. The
Birmingham resi-
dent explores the
key problem areas
that can lead to
anxiety for people
with AS such as
lack of social skills,
difficulties estab-
lishing romantic
relationships and
uncertainty about
employment.
"Nick Dubin is still in his early 30s','
writes Michael John Carley, executive
director of the Global and Regional
Asperger Syndrome Partnership. "But
by the time he reaches 50, he may very
well have written a book on every psy-
chological byproduct of life lived in the
behavioral minority. Asperger's Syndrome
and Anxiety is another great contribu-
tion towards our understanding all that
the autism spectrum presents us"
Dubin was diagnosed with Asperger
Syndrome in 2004. He holds a bachelor's
degree in communications from
Oakland University, a master's degree in
learning disabilities from the University
of Detroit Mercy and a specialist degree
in psychology from the Michigan School
of Professional Psychology.
He is the author of Asperger
Syndrome and Bullying and two DVDs,
Asperger Syndrome and Employment
and Being Bullied, all published by
Jessica Kingsley Publishers.
