A practical guide on how to live with attention deficit hyperactivity
disorder for adolescents and adults.
ADHD first manifests in childhood with symptoms of inattention,
hyperactivity and impulsivity. The strategies to attenuate
the symptoms act like "glasses for the brain", helping with
concentration and controlling fidgetiness. Did you know that over half
of children affected by ADHD still show symptoms when they reach
adulthood? That means they still need glasses and should know about the
resources available for them as grown-ups. Relying on the latest
research in the field, this book is an indispensable guide for all those
who want to understand and find tools to better cope with ADHD.
Accessible and packed with illuminating testimonials, it takes the
reader step by step through the clinical symptoms, diagnostic approach
and pharmacological treatments available for this neurodevelopmental
problem. Thoroughly practical, this guide is also a treasure trove of
practical tips and tricks to help adolescents and adults affected by
ADHD to develop effective adaptive strategies to deal with the
challenges they face from day to day.
