Fantastic book
This is a really good book. It did bring tears to my eyes at points, where some real life stories mirrored mine. It opens up your mind and shows that you are not alone. There is plenty of information and you can select bits you want to read at will.

Very useful and reassuring
Excellent empathetic and honest account of before and after diagnosis.It helped my son and myself at a distressing time.At times it is a little evangelical and 'American' but it is possible to cherry pick useful and reassuring advice.

Who me?
As someone with ADHD, I have a mountain of books that I say I’m going to read that end up gathering dust, but this time it was different because everything was so engaging and truly resonated with me! 100% would recommend this to anyone with ADHD or a partner / parent of to better understand.

A really great guide to ADHD
Love this book! As a recently diagnosed adult "ADDer" I'm really pleased to find solice, confirmation and education from these writers. From their experience and research they have made the book very user friendly while packed with information. A very useful resource for people wanting to know more about ADHD.

Difficult to absorb
This book is probably awesome, but I’ve had it for nearly a year and only read snippets because it’s dense and packed tightly on the pages. I struggle to get through it.

Very informative.
Our daughter has just been given this diagnosis and this book was highly recommended as a first read in this area. It has some very interesting and helpful information and suggestions to be explored. Helpful for all the family to advise us all about the best ways to support someone with ADD.

Feels like its written for kids. I personally didn't find it helpful or enjoyable. I'd rather read or reccomend Power of habit.

Eines der besten Bücher, die jemals über ADHS geschrieben wurden

I haven't finished reading this book yet, but I already plan on buying another. This book is for anyone! Whether you are diagnosed, undiagnosed(and experiencing the symptoms) or someone who just wants wants know how to better understand a loved one with ADHD. I'm someone who hasn't been diagnosed, but I was/am more than confident that I struggle with ADHD. This book gave me so much information that I didn't even know about and made me feel so validated and understood. I was able to read this book, take some of the information I have learned (a whole lot so far because I haven't finished it), and express it to a doctor. I'm now receiving treatment and I feel more confident talking about the things I struggle with because this book just made everything *click* for me. Because of that, I was able to get on medication for treatment! With that being said, this book doesn't just focus on medication, therapy, etc. It also provides a lot of different tips, tools, ideas, etc that can help help with day to day life. This is great for those who don't have access to a doctor or certain resources to get a diagnosis and treatment. I believe everyone should have this book; teachers, doctors, therapists, parents, ADDers, employers! Seriously, this book is worth it. And if you have ADHD, share the information you learn with people in your life so they can better understand you. Highly recommend! ❤

Ein Muss für alle, die sich mit ADD beschäftigen. Insbesonders Frauen mit den Unaufmerksamkeits Typ (wir gehen da immer im Thema verloren, dabei machen wir die Hälfte der Fälle aus!). -> Witzig, Lebensnah, faktentreu, orientiernd, und vorallem sehr erleuchternd! -> Beide Autorinnen sind im Fach sehr aktiv, und beide berfügen über eine einmalige Einsicht in die Welt der ADSler! Ein absolutes Muss!
