From the Back Cover
WHY DON T YOU THINK BEFORE YOU ACT? ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING? CAN T YOU JUST RELAX AND TAKE IT EASY? These are the kinds of comments and criticisms that adults with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder hear again and again. So what s the problem? The truth is, inattentiveness, unfinished projects, inconsistency, impulsivity, and short attention spans are not chosen behaviors designed to drive others crazy. They re common symptoms of a much greater problem that affects millions of adults-Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD), formerly known as ADD. If these behaviors describe you or someone you know, Adult AD/HD can help. Not only does it identify, explain, and dispel the myths surrounding this disorder, but it also examines the symptoms of AD/HD and gives reasonable methods for diagnosis and treatment. Now completely revised and updated to incorporate the many medical discoveries and changes in the AD/HD field, Adult AD/HD includes chapters on coaching and alternative treatment options. Written especially for adults with AD/HD, this book works with the reader, providing an easy-to-read format, highlighted summaries, and true stories to illustrate the information. A valuable resource, Adult AD/HD also brings a better understanding to professional caregivers and the families, friends, and coworkers of those with AD/HD.
