Download or read book Journeys Through ADDulthood written by Sari Solden and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2009-05-26 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sari Solden specializes in working with ADD adults and their partners. Her first book, Women with Attention Deficit Disorder, has sold more than 100,000 copies worldwide. Now, in Journeys Through ADDulthood, she takes a groundbreaking look at the emotional turmoil often precipitated by ADD and offers readers roadmaps to richer, happier lives. Living with ADD affects the development of one's view of self, especially for those not diagnosed until adulthood, after an entire childhood of feeling "different" without knowing why. There are no quick fixes-Solden takes a longer view of the challenges and sees living with ADD as an ongoing internal process. Journeys Through ADDulthood is a step-by-step guide through three stages, or journeys: toward understanding your brain and your primary symptoms; toward discovering your true identity and embracing your uniqueness; and toward learning to share your true self to connect with others. Illuminating her points based on the real-life journeys of two men and two women, Solden offers self-help exercises at the end of each chapter to point the way around common roadblocks on the road to empowerment, self-fulfillment, and the realization of long-buried dreams and goals.

Download or read book GOD ADHD AND ME written by Joseph Sorrentino and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-09-13 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspiring true story of a man who lived forty-five years not knowing he had a clinical learning disability. Discovering he had ADHD enabled him to understand the accomplishments and failures in his past. "Mr. Sorrentino has written a delightful book that is a memoir with a message. His autobiography incorporates a thought provoking review of his childhood memories transposed upon a midlife diagnosis of ADHD. He eloquently describes the conflicted relationship he had with his father and how that relationship influenced his formative years. As the book progresses, this is followed by reflections he has on multiple relationships that he had had with individuals through key times of his life. Mr. Sorrentino is loquacious as he describes milestone events and cleverly interjects anecdotes with phrases pulled from his psychiatric report. As he transports the reader through the years, he also seamlessly incorporates Bible verses and spiritual messages which clearly indicate his precious relationship with God and the profound influence Christianity has had upon him. Mr. Sorrentino's journey of self-discovery is a delightful read, and he balances well the combination of internal reflection, psychiatric diagnoses, and his evolving relationship with God in a way that is endearing and enlightening. I highly recommend his book without reservation." --Dr. Monica Harms, M.D.

Written by someone diagnosed late in life, this insightful memoir layers the author's personal experiences with practical revelations on issues common to those living with this condition, including growing up with undiagnosed ADHD, living with it as an adult, and frank discussions about the struggles and obstacles involved. Cynthia Hammer knew she had problems with focus, concentration, and memory dating back to childhood, but it was not until age 49 that she was finally diagnosed with inattentive ADHD. Initially crushed by the news, the truth of her condition enabled her to slowly accept its challenges and learn ways to reduce its negative effects through new behaviors and habits.
