Succeeding with Adult ADHD

Where was this for a teen and a college student? Clear writing, holding the interest of one with ADHD, giving concrete, step-by-step ideas to not only cope, but thrive with this neurological condition is a gift. As a therapist, some of the information was brand new. How delightful! I love the non-pathologizing and positive reframing the author provides. Whenever my latest project has stalled or I knock down a pile of papers known as "the waterfall" in my family, I think of the idea that we are "big picture" people. This does wonders for the shame and guilt of this condition. And, it's true. Rather than being bad for having grand ideas but not the detail orientation for their day-to-day execution, she has written that it is good to work as high up the corporate ladder as possible to give the detailed work to those who excel at detail. Win/win! This is the single best book for not only coping with ADHD, but thriving, using strategies and thinking my brain can get. Woo hoo! Enjoy! Read more
