Description
A renowned German psychiatrist, a specialist in AD(H)D, has written this insightful and useful guide based on her many years of experience. It can benefit not only women living with AD(H)D but generally all people with this behavioral disorder.
The first part of the book explains the typical manifestations of AD(H)D: difficulties with concentration, a "black-and-white" view of the world, hyperactivity, a tendency towards perfectionism, and a propensity for depression and anxiety, taking into account the specific situation of girls and women. However, the author also highlights the ability of people with AD(H)D to maintain a state of "flow" and their unusual creativity and original ideas. She also mentions the still insufficient societal awareness of this disorder and points out that many people with AD(H)D live unsatisfactory lives due to misdiagnosed depression.
The second part of the book focuses on various areas of life – work environment, private life, parenting, cohabitation with others, and more – and offers a wealth of specific, effective advice on how people with AD(H)D can simplify, streamline, and harmonize their functioning as much as possible.
