Synopsis

Brought to you by Penguin.

Don’t just manage your ADHD – thrive with it

If you have, or suspect you have, ADHD, or you simply feel stuck – drowning in half-finished tasks, unhelpful habits and a perpetual feeling that you can’t seem to ‘get it together’ – then this book is for you.

As a leading adult ADHD psychiatrist, who himself has ADHD, Dr James Kustow passionately believes that the goal should not be to just ‘manage’ ADHD, but to thrive with it. This ground-breaking book will allow you to assess if and how the condition affects you, mapping your unique ‘ADHD signature’, before leading you through a seven-pillar plan of small but powerful habit changes. You will learn:How to stabilise your sleep, schedule and surroundings, so you can direct energy to the things that really matter.Easy-to-implement strategies and tools to streamline your life.Simple techniques to calm your mind, reduce the ‘noise’ and achieve your goals, underpinned by a growth-oriented mindset.Practical ways to optimise your nutrition and reduce toxic exposures, to improve brain health.In small, manageable steps, you can transform the chaos into focus, productivity and balance – for life.

‘Affirming, validating and life-enhancing – if you think you may have ADHD, this book is for you’
– Matt Willis, musician and podcaster
