Synopsis

With a new wave of adult ADHD diagnoses sweeping the world, many are beginning to discover what it is that sets them apart, but few have learnt what it takes to thrive...

What does ADHD tell us about how we think and act? Can it limit opportunities and connection? Does it offer cerebral superpowers? What strategies and medication can help lessen the difficulties of ADHD and instead boost its benefits? World-renowned ADHD expert, best-selling author, and TikTok sensation Dr Edward M. Hallowell (aka Dr Ned) demystifies this deeply misunderstood diagnosis in 100 lessons.

Transform your understanding of ADHD and learn to thrive through simple science and must-know life hacks. This is a fast-track introduction to ADHD - what it is, how it manifests, and ways to cope - inspired by Dr Ned's viral videos, better known as 'NedTalks'. Brief entries and an easy-to-follow structure disseminate knowledge and the latest scientific findings in a style particularly suited to ADHD readers. As both an ADHD expert, and a diagnosed patient, Dr Ned blends a medical and personal take on the topic in this groundbreaking guide.
