Can drugs cure Attention Deficit Disorder? Why are some ADD children and adults more successful than their "normal" peers? What professions are best for ADD people? In this ground-breaking book, author Thom Hartmann presents a new and very welcome approach to Attention Deficit Disorder. His is the first book to explain clearly that ADD, rather than being a problem, may actually be beneficial. He sees ADD sufferers as "hunters", totally focused on movement, constantly monitoring their environment and exhibiting incredible bursts of energy. Correctly approached, these characteristics can be harnessed to create an overall positive effect. These "hunters" find themselves in our contemporary society surrounded by non-ADD sufferers or "farmers" cautious, slow and steady workers. This positive and long-awaited book explains how adults and children with ADD can adapt and function more creatively and productively in today's world. Thom Hartmann also identifies ADD individuals who have helped to change the world they lived in - Ernest Hemingway, Thomas Edison and Benjamin Franklin.Author: Thom HartmannPaperback: 232 pages Company: Newleaf (1999-02-28) ISBN: 0717128652

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.

In 1994, Driven to Distraction sparked a revolution in our understanding of attention deficit disorder. Widely recognized as the classic in the field, the book has sold more than a million copies. Now a second revolution is under way in the approach to ADD, and the news is great. Drug therapies, our understanding of the role of diet and exercise, even the way we define the disorder–all are changing radically. And doctors are realizing that millions of adults suffer from this condition, though the vast majority of them remain undiagnosed and untreated. In this new book, Drs. Edward M. Hallowell and John J. Ratey build on the breakthroughs of Driven to Distraction to offer a comprehensive and entirely up-to-date guide to living a successful life with ADD.As Hallowell and Ratey point out, “attention deficit disorder” is a highly misleading description of an intriguing kind of mind. Original, charismatic, energetic, often brilliant, people with ADD have extraordinary talents and gifts embedded in their highly charged but easily distracted minds. Tailored expressly to ADD learning styles and attention spans, Delivered from Distraction provides accessible, engaging discussions of every aspect of the condition, from diagnosis to finding the proper treatment regime. Inside you’ll discover• whether ADD runs in families
• new diagnostic procedures, tests, and evaluations
• the links between ADD and other conditions
• how people with ADD can free up their inner talents and strengths
• the new drugs and how they work, and why they’re not for everyone
• exciting advances in nonpharmaceutical therapies, including changes in diet, exercise, and lifestyle
• how to adapt the classic twelve-step program to treat ADD
• sexual problems associated with ADD and how to resolve them
• strategies for dealing with procrastination, clutter, and chronic forgetfulness
ADD is a trait, a way of living in the world. It only becomes a disorder when it impairs your life. Featuring gripping profiles of patients with ADD who have triumphed, Delivered from Distraction is a wise, loving guide to releasing the positive energy that all people with ADD hold inside. If you have ADD or care about someone who does, this is the book you must read.

Eagle Eyes: A Child's Guide to Paying Attention (The Coping Series)
This child who has ADD (ADHD, attention deficit disorder) is fascinated with nature, but when he's outdoors his ADHD negatively affects his family dynamics—not to mention his schoolwork and self-esteem. The hallmarks of ADHD—impulsivity, distractibility, and hyperactivity, as well as difficulty sleeping—are clearly shown in this story. This revised edition gives recent descriptions of the ADHD treatment process, including relaxation techniques, medication, and an entire song that children can sing to help them gather school materials before leaving home. Discussion starters to help parents and professionals expand on the meaning of the book are included for use with individuals or groups of children.

Procrastination. Disorganization. Distractibility. Millions of adults have long considered these the hallmarks of a lack of self-discipline. But for many, these and other problems in school, at work and in social relationships are actually symptoms of an inborn neurological problem: ADD, or Attention Deficit Disorder.Through vivid stories of their patients' experiences, Drs. Hallowell and Ratey now offer a comprehensive overview of one of the most controversial psychiatric diagnoses of our day. They show the varied forms ADD takes -- and the transforming impact of precise diagnosis and treatment. And, as successful professionals who are both living with ADD, they extend a message of hope and compassion to all listeners struggling with ADD in their own lives or in the lives of loved ones.
An enlightening exploration of a condition only recently identified, Driven To Distraction is a must for everyone intrigued by the workings of the human mind.

Cold Comfort: Mothers, Professionals, and Attention Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorder
Mothers of children with Attention Deficit Disorder must inevitably make decisions regarding their children's diagnosis within a context of competing discourses about the nature of the disorder and the legitimacy of its treatment. They also make these decisions within an overriding climate of mother-blame. Claudia Malacrida's Cold Comfort provides a contextualized study of how mothers negotiate with/against the 'helping professions' over assessment and treatment for their AD(H)D children.
Malacrida counters current conceptions about mothers of AD(H)D children (namely that mothers irresponsibly push for Ritalin to manage their children's behaviour) as well as professional assumptions of maternal pathology. This thought-provoking examination documents Malacrida's extensive interviews with mothers of affected children in both Canada and the United Kingdom, and details the way in which these women speak of their experiences. Malacrida compares their narratives to national discourses and practices, placing the complex mother-child and mother-professional relations at the centre of her critical inquiry.
Drawing on both poststructural discourse analysis and feminist standpoint theory, Malacrida makes a critical contribution to qualitative methodologies by developing a feminist discursive ethnography of the construction of AD(H)D in two divergent cultures. On a more personal level, she offers readers a moving, nuanced, and satisfying examination of real women and children facing both public and private challenges linked to AD(H)D.

Excerpt: ... Lower noise level. Monitor the noise level in the classroom, ► and provide corrective feedback, as needed. If the noise level exceeds the level appropriate for the type of lesson, remind all students - or individual students - about the behavioral rules stated at the beginning of the lesson. Divide work into smaller units. Break down assignments ► into smaller, less complex tasks. For example, allow students to complete five math problems before presenting them with the remaining five problems. ► Highlight key points. Highlight key words in the instructions on worksheets to help the child with ADHD focus on the directions. Prepare the worksheet before the lesson begins, or underline key words as you and the child read the directions together. When reading, show children how to identify and highlight a key sentence, or have them write it on a separate piece of paper, before asking for a summary of the entire book. In math, show children how to underline the important facts and operations; in " Mary has two apples, and John has three, " underline " two, " " and, " and " three.

Allow students with ADHD more time to complete quizzes and tests in order to eliminate " test anxiety, " and provide them with other opportunities, methods, or test formats to demonstrate their knowledge.

Executive function and self-regulation are two areas of child and adult development that are fundamental. Executive function has to do with judgment, planning, anticipation of consequences, and self-regulation. Self-regulation is a term that covers capacities for managing emotions, behaviors, thoughts, and memories. Many children and adults have issues with executive function and self-regulation. This brief piece discusses not only what both of them are, but provides guidelines for effective parenting and intervention when issues are present.Author: Jane F.

Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is among the most common neurobehavioral disorders requiring treatment in children and adolescents. The disorder is often chronic, with prominent symptoms and impairment spanning into adulthood. It is often associated with co-occurring disorders, including disruptive, mood, anxiety, and substance abuse disorders. The diagnosis of ADHD is clinically established by review of symptoms and impairment. The biological underpinning of the disorder is supported by genetic, neuroimaging, neurochemistry, and neuropsychological data. All aspects of an individual’s life need to be considered in the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD. Multimodal treatment includes educational, family, and individual support. Psychotherapy alone and in combination with medication is helpful for treating patients with ADHD and comorbid disorders. Pharmacotherapy, including stimulants, noradrenergic agents, α-agonists, and antidepressants, plays a fundamental role in the long-term management of ADHD.Original Publication Date: September 2010Author: Timothy E.

OCLC Number: (OCoLC)277229156 Subject: Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. Excerpt: ... Once the observations and testing are complete, a group of qualified professionals and the parents of the child will review the results and determine if the child has a disability and whether the child needs special educa-tion and related services. Using this information, the child's IEP team, which includes the child's parents, will develop an individualized educational program that directly addresses the child's learning and behavior. If the child is recommended for evaluation and determined by the child's IEP team not to meet the eligibility requirements under IDEA, the child may be appropriate for evaluation under Section 504.

There is a dynamism among "current ideas" on AD/HD research which is extraordinarily encouraging as we look to the future and the resolution of the problems of AD/HD. We can have more confidence than of late that we can determine and rate the problems grouped under the rubric of AD/HD (chapter 1), delineate them with respect to some prominent (if not all) related behavioural disruptions (chapter 2) and have some confidence in an inter-cultural commonality of a problem that may respond to attention from professional care-givers (chapter 4). We are standing already at the second stage of an understanding and attribution of genetic and environmentally mediated traits (chapter 3, 9 and 10): that the "way forward" (towards which feature(s) trigger(s) which effect(s)) may involve tens of stages is exciting - for the first results are at hand (e.g., DRD4). Which amine systems (DA, NA, 5-HT, adrenaline, acetylcholine) intervene with anomalous function is better understood qualitatively than quantitatively (chapters 5-8). Perhaps this link in the chain of understanding remains in the most primitive state, among the fields discussed in this book. What elements control the transport of a monoamine within the synapse and synaptic bouton (e.g., vesicle transporters, and neurexins), let alone the rules for extraneuronal uptake and release in neighbouring systems (e.g. DA by NA systems)? This knowledge will determine future generations of biologically based treatments . Chapter 12 an 13 have illustrated how (in principle) we may determine, with simple neurophysiological means, for whom precisely will these work, and on what neural systems and psychological functions are they effective. The current ideas are promising, a body of knowledge is there, many details still need to be teased out, but the way forward has been indicated.Hardcover: 280 pages

So much depends on how you look at things: Are you a glass-half-empty person, or do you discover advantages where other people find only weaknesses? When it comes to raising healthy, happy kids, positive encouragement and support can work miracles where attempts to change and control create frustration and resentment. In her first book, The Gift of ADHD, psychologist Lara Honos-Webb offers a positive, strengths-affirming new way to look at kids who present behaviors associated with attention-deficit / hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Instead of struggling to “tame” your easily distracted child, she shows you how to appreciate your child’s creativity, sensitivity, and passion for living. In this book, she develops the ideas from The Gift of ADHD into 101 simple and engaging activities you can use to develop your child’s unique strengths.
The chapters of the book explore ways you can shift your thinking about different aspects of ADHD. Each starts with a short discussion of how a particular challenge can be reconceived as a strength. After that, the book dives into fun and positive activities you and your child can do together—often in just a few minutes—to help develop and reinforce the gifts of ADHD.

Overcoming ADHD Without Medication: A Parent and Educator's Guidebook
A practical guidebook on how parents and teachers can help children overcome symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - ADHD - without stimulants or other medication.There is much circumstantial, observational as well as scientific evidence that non-pharmaceutical methods of treating ADHD, including self-help, are not only of much value, but can effectively take a child out of the classifiable range. Psychiatric medication addresses symptoms, but do not cure the illness itself. Lifestyle changes help almost all children to improve. Engaging in artwork, outdoor activities and nature helps many children with ADHD to focus. Many children with ADHD are visually-oriented. Overcoming ADHD Without Medication was developed through years of research, field work in the public school system, and in working with individual students. The concepts presented here are effective, field-tested and can help most children to overcome symptoms of ADHD without ever needing to take psychiatric medications. Professionals whose work is highlighted in Overcoming ADHD Without Medication are,
· Reading coach
· School psychologist
· Special education teachers
· Early childhood teachers
· Art teacher and professor
· Certified ADHD coach
· Clinical psychologists
· Educational authors
· Clinical studies
· University professors, researchers
Supplemental information from David Rabiner, Ph.D., Duke University on ADHD and Medication, Childhood Depression; Daniella Barroqueira, Ph.D., on Art and ADHD; Iowa State University research on Violent Video Games, ADHD and Aggression in children/teens. Information from Virginia State University researchers is included in an article entitled Children's Television Impacts Children's Executive Functions and Contributes to Later Attention Problems. Music and ADHD for parents and school principals is also highlighted.
A public school art teacher who had Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder as a teen, and who was on methylphenidate (Ritalin) and dextroamphetamine (Adderall) while in middle and high school shares his experience in successfully coming off psychiatric medications permanently.
Some of the non-pharmaceutical methods covered in Overcoming ADHD Without Medication, in addition to lifestyle changes and prevention, are art and art therapy, green therapy, nutrition, positive teaching methods and adjustments, positive adjustments in music, positive parenting adjustments, and neurofeedback. The need for love, nurturing, as well as personal attention, is also highlighted.
The book on ADHD is well-referenced, has an extensive bibliography and index, 15 photo-illustrations, six charts and graphs, as well as a recommended reading and resources section. We hope that it helps your child to be successful in school and in life.

Kindle Debut 90% off pricing (will be $9.99 soon!)In this book you will learn the specific vitamins and nutrients that most ADD ADHD people lack.More importantly, I show you easy ways to get these very important vitamins and nutrients.From the Introduction...Over the past decade I have been on a mission to help illuminate the Truth about ADD ADHD. Our society offers only one solution, drugs. If drugs were the answer there would be no need for a book like this. If ADD drugs like Adderall, Ritalin, and Vyvanse fix the root cause of ADD ADHD then there is no need to be concerned with nutrition.
We do not have a Ritalin deficiency, we have a nutritional deficiency.
Over the past decade I have been on a mission to help illuminate the Truth about ADD ADHD. Our society offers only one solution, drugs. If drugs were the answer there would be no need for a book like this. If ADD drugs like Adderall, Ritalin, and Vyvanse fix the root cause of ADD ADHD then there is no need to be concerned with nutrition.
We do not have a Ritalin deficiency, we have a nutritional deficiency.
This book will prove to you that there is overwhelming evidence that ADD ADHD symptoms can be alleviated naturally. Natural alternatives to medicine is often seen as week and non-effective. In the case of ADD ADHD, nutrition has proven to outperform ADD drugs in numerous studies.
The goal of this book is to share the scientific facts about the “17 Secret ADD Vitamins” and how you can benefit from these findings.
After pouring over scientific journals and clinical trials it has become clear that lack of nutrition is the main cause of ADD ADHD symptoms. The brain is the most nutrient demanding organ in the body.
When we don’t feed ourselves sufficient amounts of these vital building blocks, our bodies will naturally try to compensate. This is why ADD ADHD symptoms manifest.
Our modern diets leave our bodies lacking the main building blocks for healthy brain function. This should be no surprise to anyone. We have gone from a farming society to a “processed” food society. We eat fewer fruits and vegetables.
The ones we do eat have been laden with pesticides and artificial substances to “look” good on the produce isle. Much of these fruits and vegetables have travelled hundreds of miles leaving any remaining nutrient value “lost in transit”.
We thrive on fast foods and junk food and then we wonder why we are having trouble focusing. It has become increasingly difficult to eat a healthy diet.
This book is not a prescription for a complicated diet.
I discovered early on in my journey that there would have to be a better, easier way to get these crucial vitamins and nutrients into our bodies.
Thankfully, there are some excellent nutritional supplements that offer absorbable, bio-available nutrition .
By taking supplements we can be certain that we are at least “covering our bases”
It is my sincere hope that this information empowers you to have better days and reach your full potential.

Did you know that if you forget to pay a speeding ticket you WILL get arrested—in front of your kids, the neighbors—the dog—and anyone else who happens to be there? And if someone tells you to give Bob Dole a lap dance you shouldn’t listen because you WILL get in trouble? These and other nuggets of wisdom are imparted to offer those suffering from ADHD some hope in knowing that they are not alone. A hysterical romp through a life so convoluted and chaotic you know it has to be true, Stacey Turis’s debut gives a voice to the genius yet tormented souls suffering from giftedness, ADHD, or a combination of both (a condition known as twice-exceptional). Chronicling her life journey from a state of self-loathing to one of self-acceptance, the stories flow timelessly, incorporating the resulting lessons and reflections gleaned from each adventure. Including both the tragic details of a horrifically abusive time in her childhood to comic adventures such as deciding to dye her hair plum the day before an important presentation only to have it turn out purple, her life has never suffered from a dull moment. And though she often thought Karma was the reason she found herself in so many “pickles,” a friend explained that when you put yourself out in the world more than anyone else, it’s really just a matter of statistics. Lucky for Turis and the rest of us, she’s put herself out there again to allow us all to look at life through her pair of less-struggle-more-sass glasses. With over three hundred million people suffering from ADHD worldwide and experiencing many of the same debilitating symptoms, Turis’s goal is to share her experiences so others can rid themselves of the shame of hiding their behavior. A rip-roaring and bracingly honest look at a twice-exceptional life, Here’s to Not Catching Our Hair on Fire: An Absent-Minded Tale of Life with Giftedness and Attention Deficit—Oh Look! A Chicken! is a rollicking depiction of a life that seems to be constantly going off the rails. Kirkus Reviews - The World's Toughest Book Critics SM Turis’ memoir is a bright-side report from the dark side of attention deficit (hyperactivity) disorder—also known as AD(H)D. Although none of us really knows what “normal” is, we can usually spot “different” a mile away. Folks with AD(H)D are definitely different, with brains and bodies that operate according to their own rules. But what is AD(H)D, and why does it matter? Turis answers these questions frankly in this insightful, amusing glimpse into atypical intelligence. The work starts by presenting the harsh bottom line: “Families, marriages, jobs, relationships…they all display the scars from the battle that is AD(H)D. Nothing comes out unscathed—absolutely nothing.” Turis’ examples of this are so honest that the book is sometimes painful to read, but that serves its purpose. Folks afflicted with the syndrome will recognize themselves in Turis’ story and find comfort in her upbeat attitude, while “normal” people will gain knowledge toward understanding and accepting the “billion gifts and…gazillion heartaches” that go with AD(H)D. Readers unfamiliar with the condition will learn what all those letters mean. The title captures their essence, and from both title and subject one might expect the narrative to be jumpy. But, in fact, it flows smoothly through Turis’ ups and downs, with lucid descriptions of psychic states that most anyone can to relate to. Turis’ voice is vivid and engaging and her content informative. Turis speaks to anyone associated with AD(H)D and offers her life as illustration of how to succeed despite its burden. For Turis and her fellow sufferers, getting through daily rituals and social or career obligations is like climbing Mt. Everest during a tornado. She offers a model for how it can be done, loaded with laughter and sobered by tears. A forthright, energetic memoir about AD(H)D.

Do you: • Have trouble paying attention and staying on task? • Suffer from disorganization, procrastination, or forgetfulness? • Have difficulty with restlessness or trouble managing strong feelings such as anger and frustration? • Struggle with self-doubt and difficulty following through? • In a way that causes problems in your relationships or your work? If so, you may have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)—like an estimated 8 million adults in this country. Physician-researcher Dr. Lidia Zylowska has created an 8-step program for using mindfulness practice (attention and awareness training) to overcome the symptoms of ADHD. The program includes practices such as sitting meditation, body awareness, thoughtful speaking and listening, development of self-acceptance, mindful self-coaching, cultivation of a balanced view of thoughts and emotions, and more. Dr. Zylowska educates readers about ADHD, helping them to understand how their ADHD brain works and how they can use mindful awareness to work with their challenges. She also explains how the mindful approach can be combined with other treatments, including medications, to boost self-improvement.
This book is accompanied by an audio program of guided mindfulness exercises for successfully managing ADHD.

This book is perfect for you if you are an adult and have or are starting to worry that you have attention deficit disorder, with or without the hyperactivity (ADD or ADHD).It takes the 10% that is actually useful from many books and puts it together in an easy to read, highly accurate and informative book.The reason this book will help you is because it was written by David, an adult who has ADHD but didn't want to get treatment. He didn't believe it was real. Or that treatment could help.
But since then, he has become a recognized expert in ADHD. David's writings on ADHD have been read by hundreds of thousands of people.
Not only does the book answer important questions in a fun, interesting and engaging way - it provides plenty of citations so you know the science is accurate.
Some of what it covers:
What's the difference between normal inattention and ADHD? What are the medications and how do they compare to each other? How does one succeed in their career with ADHD? How can we prove adult ADHD exists? Can diet contribute or cause symptoms?It also talks about:
The 33 ways to check if you have ADHD The 4 secrets to success with adult ADHD Why it is often ignored in adults How to distinguish ADHD from other conditionsReaders say:
"I am 45 years old and was never diagnosed with ADHD. Thanks to David's extremely helpful book, I was able to understand ADHD and how it was affecting my life. It managed to capture exactly what I've been going through - I was shocked to discover what I thought was just my way of doing things were actually symptoms of ADHD.
Thanks to this book I have received treatment for ADHD and it has changed my life and work for the better!"
Mark, Business Owner
"I have been doing a lot of research lately and found this book's content to be helpful but not intimidating. Most of the information I found is either too medically dry or directed toward raising children with ADHD.
I have much more to learn but you provided an excellent jumping-off point. I found the book very helpful and I am going to share it with my older children."
Robin O., Mother
"I found the book very interesting - it is very inspiring and encouraged me to take action. I have not read a book that has the same hopeful approach this one does, and it really helped me out."

Small changes can add up to big improvements--this empowering book shows how.

Winner of four national book awards, including Foreword Magazine's Psychology Book of the Year!The science has been clear since 1994, when Adult AD/HD was declared a medical diagnosis. Still, the public harbors misconceptions, and that means millions suffer needlessly. And that includes millions of couples who can't understand why their lives together are so hard -- sometimes despite many attempts at couples therapy.Everyone knows someone with adult AD/HD. Yet we misattribute the symptoms to anxiety, depression, or even laziness, selfishness, or moodiness. Moreover, we assume AD/HD means "little boys with ants in their pants." In fact, childhood hyperactivity goes "underground" as the person matures, resulting in a mentally restless state. (By the way, the former, and still better-known, official term is ADD, plus or minus Hyperactivity. The new term, AD/HD, uses a slash mark to indicate that hyperactivity is not central to the diagnosis.)
Meticulously researched by award-winning journalist Gina Pera, Is It You, Me, or Adult A.D.D.? is a comprehensive guide to recognizing the behaviors where you least expect them (on the road and in the bedroom, for example) and developing compassion for couples wrestling with unrecognized ADHD symptoms. It also offers the latest information from top experts, plenty of real-life details, and easy-to-understand guidelines for finding the best treatment options and practical solutions. The revolutionary message is one of hope for millions of people--and a joyous opportunity for a better life.
Insightful, helpful, witty, and very practical. This book can change your life.

This book is a simple guide to DIET change. You can see by reading the reviews there are many opinions about ADHD. Some will have you believe that it is a DISEASE and only MEDS can HELP!! The BOTTOM LINE is the FACT!!! DHA in the brain is critical for OPTIMAL BRAIN function. If you do not want to change you or your families diet do not PURCHASE the book. TRANS FAT interupts the creation of DHA, if for example you or your child eat peanut butter with TRANS fat, you will have long term challenges. Some have a problem with a NATURAL APPROACH, let me tell if meds were the answer you would not see so many looking for NATURAL options. Why a CHIROPRACTOR? The body works by nervous system function, when there is interuption in this communication like a USB port being disconnected the body will not function optimally. There is a chapter on spinal function, you will be amazed by what you will learn. Dr. Bob's approach is simple, create the platform to create DHA by feeding the body correct nutrients, eliminating sugar for some, trans fat for others, dairy can be an issue. It is not uncommn for ADHD children to have ADHD parents. I know the book will make a difference. Write down what you and or your child eats, look at the labels; if you see a pattern of trans fat or partially hydrogenated oils you would be very wise to get the book and make changes.

Delivered from Distraction: Getting the Most out of Life with Attention Deficit Disorder
In 1994, Driven to Distraction sparked a revolution in our understanding of attention deficit disorder. Widely recognized as the classic in the field, the book has sold more than a million copies. Now a second revolution is under way in the approach to ADD, and the news is great. Drug therapies, our understanding of the role of diet and exercise, even the way we define the disorder–all are changing radically. And doctors are realizing that millions of adults suffer from this condition, though the vast majority of them remain undiagnosed and untreated. In this new book, Drs. Edward M. Hallowell and John J. Ratey build on the breakthroughs of Driven to Distraction to offer a comprehensive and entirely up-to-date guide to living a successful life with ADD.As Hallowell and Ratey point out, “attention deficit disorder” is a highly misleading description of an intriguing kind of mind. Original, charismatic, energetic, often brilliant, people with ADD have extraordinary talents and gifts embedded in their highly charged but easily distracted minds. Tailored expressly to ADD learning styles and attention spans, Delivered from Distraction provides accessible, engaging discussions of every aspect of the condition, from diagnosis to finding the proper treatment regime. Inside you’ll discover• whether ADD runs in families• new diagnostic procedures, tests, and evaluations
• the links between ADD and other conditions
• how people with ADD can free up their inner talents and strengths
• the new drugs and how they work, and why they’re not for everyone
• exciting advances in nonpharmaceutical therapies, including changes in diet, exercise, and lifestyle
• how to adapt the classic twelve-step program to treat ADD
• sexual problems associated with ADD and how to resolve them
• strategies for dealing with procrastination, clutter, and chronic forgetfulness
ADD is a trait, a way of living in the world. It only becomes a disorder when it impairs your life. Featuring gripping profiles of patients with ADD who have triumphed, Delivered from Distraction is a wise, loving guide to releasing the positive energy that all people with ADD hold inside. If you have ADD or care about someone who does, this is the book you must read.

ADD-Friendly Ways to Organize Your Life
Over 100,000 Copies Sold!
Organizing books fall short of addressing the unique needs of adults with ADD. They fail to understand the clinical picture of ADD and how it impacts the organizing process often making their advice irrelevant or frustrating when put into application. Books about ADD may address organization/disorganization but do so in a cursory fashion and on a very small scale in what are usually long books on the subject. This is a book that has ADD-Friendly advice with the ADDer in mind. This collaboration brings forth the best underlying understanding with the most effective and practical remedy from ADD experts in two important fields -- professional organization and clinical psychology. Finally, it offers organizing advice that ranges from self-help to utilizing the help of non-professionals, to using professional assistance. Thus it permits the reader to decide where they are at personally in the organizing process, and what level of support will be most beneficial to their unique situation.

ADHD and Me: What I Learned from Lighting Fires at the Dinner Table
Blake Taylor's mother first suspected he had ADHD when he, at only three years of age, tried to push his infant sister in her carrier off the kitchen table. As time went by, Blake developed a reputation for being hyperactive and impulsive. He launched rockets (accidentally) into neighbor's swimming pools and set off alarms in museums. Blake was diagnosed formally with ADHD when he was five years old. In ADHD and Me, he tells about the next twelve years as he learns to live with both the good and bad sides of life with ADHD.
Blake's memoir offers, for the first time, a young person's account of what it's like to live and grow up with this common condition. Join Blake as he foils bullies, confronts unfair teachers, struggles with distraction and disorganization on exams, and goes sailing out-of-bounds and ends up with a boatload of spiders. It will be an inspiration and companion to the thousands of others like him who must find a way to thrive with a different perspective than many of us. The book features an introduction by psychologist Lara Honos-Webb, author of The Gift of ADHD, and a leading advocate for kids with ADHD.

The author describes the spectrum of ADHD, the co-occurring symptoms, and common difficulties that parents face. The rest of the book focuses on solutions, based around four rules. Rule number one is keeping it positive: punishments can change behavior, but only positive approaches can improve attitude. Rule number two is keeping it calm: it's difficult thinking clearly enough to solve problems logically if you are feeling overwhelmed. Rule number three is keeping it organized: this rule relates particularly to the child's school life. Rule number four is to keep doing rules one to three. Finally, Dr. Kutscher discusses the role of medication for treating ADHD.

Learning with YOUR purpose in mind -- not your parents', not your teacher's, not your school'sEvery day, your school, your teachers, and even your peers draw lines to
measure and standardize intelligence. They decide what criteria make one person smart and another person stupid. They decide who will succeed and who will just get by. Perhaps you find yourself outside the norm, because you learn differently -- but, unlike your classmates, you have no system in place that consistently supports your ability and desire to learn. Simply put, you are considered lazy and stupid. You are expected to fail.
Learning Outside the Lines is written by two such "academic failures" -- that is, two academic failures who graduated from Brown University at the top of their class. Jonathan Mooney and David Cole teach you how to take control of your education and find true success -- and they offer all the reasons why you should persevere. Witty, bold, and disarmingly honest, Learning Outside the Lines takes you on a journey toward personal empowerment and profound educational change, proving once again that rules sometimes need to be broken.
