U should buy this book!
I think this is one of the best books for women with Add. Most books are boring and technical or focus on children with ADD. This book is written for women who are often left behind in being diagnosed correctly or who want info for themselves. I kept this book and like to read it again now and then to get inspiration. Sari Solden is great at keeping it simple so everyone can understand the info ...

Adult ADD
I was recently diagnosed with ADD, I am a 27 year old female and it was a long road to a diagnosis. After years of living bellow my capabilities and failing at everything I tried, i read this book and it seemed to tell my life story. Everything seemed so clear now, why I couldn't hold a job, be on time, finish college. I don't know why a doctor never noticed this before. When I went to ...

Cultivate your shadow hypochondriasis
Shadows Syndromes is a worthy read, in that it does a good job of highlighting the major disconnect between diagnostic categories and reality. While the DSM model has its uses (research and billing being the only two I can think of right now), it also serves to reify the notion that mental illnesses are precise, discreet disorders. Any one with an ounce of clinic experience will tell you that ...

A Fairly Thorough Yet Basic Workbook
This book offers some basic information on ADD/ADHD and substance abuse. It makes use of some slightly vague Socratic Method questioning in hopes of guiding the reader to some entry level awareness, insight & resolution. This is a great starter for clients just beginning to grapple with the reality and impact of these issues on their lives.

ADD Success Stories - Awesome
As a "hunter" myself, I never could get past all that boring ADD diagnotic stuff about receptors, etc. This was the first book on ADD that was interesting enough to read. It confirmed, for me, what I thought all along. I'm not defective, just different. Many gifted people throughout history have been just tormented by our boring farmer society. This book has also helped my to deal ...

I'm too distracted to review this but I wasn't distracted at all reading it
Honestly, the title of my review wasn't originally intended to be funny. I came on Amazon to look up the publishing date for a footnote/bibliography reference for this book. I now have spent too much time reading reviews on diet books and updating my other reviews on movies and phones to do this review justice. But if you're looking it up, you don't want a long review anyway. It is the best ...

The interdependence of mental, emotional, and physical health
With Eric Hagerman, John Ratey has written a book in which he explains -- in layman's terms (to the extent that is possible) -- how physical exercise can "supercharge [provide a `spark' to] mental circuits to avoid or overcome stress, sharpen thinking, lift mood, increase memory...and much more." Obviously, these are all highly desirable results to achieve. Alas, many children as well as adults ...
