Paperback. 'This is THE BOOK on ADHD in women'- Dr Ned Hallowell'A life-changing book for women with ADHD!' - Dr Patricia Quinn'I consider this the new Bible of ADHD in women'- Terry Matlen'Destined to become the standard text on the subject' - Dr William DodsonDiscussion around ADHD has exploded in recent years. Yet its symptoms are still too often missed, minimised or misunderstood - especially in girls and women. The gap between the public face and the private reality is where many women with ADHD live, sometimes for decades. Symptoms shift. The same woman who appears impressively steady from the outside can feel perpetually on edge - one missed step away from losing her footing. The fallout can be chronic self-doubt, anxiety, burnout, underachievement and a quiet, corrosive sense of shame. The good news is that ADHD is treatable. This book offers an anchor for women who want to understand what's really going on, make informed choices about support - from lifestyle change to medication - and move forward with less self-blame and more self-trust. This readable, humane exploration of ADHD in women is both a validation and practical roadmap - a go-to survival guide for all women with high-wire brains. A unique collaboration between an ADHD psychiatrist and an author-illustrator and coach, this book brings ADHD in women to life through vivid stories, sound medical information, nuanced insights and humorous illustrations.

A unique collaboration between an ADHD psychiatrist and an author-illustrator with ADHD explaining this disorder using case studies, sound medical information, nuanced insights and humorous illustrations.
Discussion around ADHD has exploded in recent years. On TikTok alone, #adhd appears 30 billion times a month! Yet understanding remains elusive. Its symptoms are all too often missed or misunderstood, especially among girls and women.
Heightened awareness has led to more people seeking help, but it has also created a cacophony of voices - from sceptics and advocates alike. In an era of information overload, it's crucial to have a reliable source.
Amid the turbulence, this book offers a much-needed anchor to help women make informed choices about their mental health, bringing clarity to a muddled conversation. The good news is that ADHD is treatable, in fact, it's one of the most treatable conditions in psychiatry as the seven women in the book's case studies discover.
This unique book brings empathy, a passion to help and a uniquely readable and visual style. This is an intimate, humorous and relatable exploration of the disorder that will be a go-to survival guide for women with ADHD.
