"Found out recently that I have suffered with ADD my whole life. It wasn't until my 9 year old nephew was diagnosed that the penny dropped! This was a great book with valuable references but I thought it very humorous indeed that for an adult with ADD, the book has 445 pages - it looked like a daunting task to read but took it in parts and got through it easily!"
"Any adult who wonders if they are ADD will appreciate this book. The writers provide information, resources and lots of humor as they educate us on Attention Deficit Disorder and provide moral support to those of us who need it. Also includes advice on improving memory, the power of meditation, coaching, and using therapy and/or medication."
"The most helpful things about this book were the extensive case studies and examples of people and how ADD affected their lives in many different ways. I think also the drug sections and therapy possibilities were interesting and brief. However, the book could have benefited from some serious editing. And the strategies to help ADDers with organization and other areas where they need help were not well organized or nearly extensive enough."
