If you are a woman with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), you've probably known—all your life—that you're different. As girls, we learn which behaviors, thinking, learning, and working styles are preferred, which are accepted and tolerated, and which are frowned upon. These preferences are communicated in innumerable ways—from media and books to our first-grade classroom to conversations with our classmates and parents.
Over the course of a lifetime, women with ADHD learn through various channels that the way they think, work, speak, relate, and act does not match up with the preferred way of being in the world. In short, they learn that difference is bad. And, since these women know that they are different, they learn that they are bad. It's time for a change.
A Radical Guide for Women with ADHD is the first guided workbook for women with ADHD designed to break the cycle of negative self-talk and shame-based narratives that stem from the common and limiting belief that brain differences are character flaws. In this unique guide, you'll find a groundbreaking approach that blends traditional ADHD treatment with contemporary treatment methods, such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), to help you untangle yourself from the beliefs that have kept you from reaching your potential in life.

En upplyftande bok baserad på modern forskning. Författarna är en utbildad psykoterapeut och doktor i psykologi, båda med klinisk erfarenhet av adhd hos kvinnor. Den tar tar ett helhets- och socialt perspektiv (till skillnad från enbart ett medicinskt) på adhd utan att döma eller sprida skam. Den upplyftande och rolig och uppmanar till medkänsla och självmedkänsla. Den har hjälpt mig att vara mjukare mot mig själv. Om det är något boken saknar är det ett mer inklusivt perspektiv som även nämner att det kan finnas andra könsidentiteter vars adhd inte presenterar enligt ”standardmodellen”. Jag rekommenderar boken till alla som vill lära sig mer om sig själv och sin adhd.
