 YOU MEAN I'M NOT LAZY, STUPID OR CRAZY?!: A Self-help Book for
Adults with Attention Deficit Disorder Cassettes
Uk
Can
by Kate Kelly, Peggy Ramundo "I first bought this book strictly because
of it's title. Having spent 45 years feeling crazy & stupid and
being accused of laziness most of my life, I decided this book was
for me. I didn't realize how very right I was! When I started to read
I realized I was reading about myself. I identified with many of the
descriptions of ADD from childhood through to adulthood. It was incredible
to learn I was not alone in my daily frustration. This wonderful,
informative book started me on a road of self-discovery. I was subsequently
tested and diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder. The authors
describe this "disability" as an "ADD-ed dimension" and they are so
right! I now have self-esteem and self pride. My intelligence has
been tested and verified .. I'm not lazy, crazy or stupid and I thank
the authors of this book for that discovery. This book has changed
my life. I can now read a page without losing my place. I don't forget
what I'm saying or lose things as often. I have learned that I am
one of many who use an additional area of my brain & must therefore
learn to "process things differently". I no longer feel timid, ashamed,
afraid or just plain different. I can now accept and like myself for
the first time in my life."

 Honey,
Are You Listening? How Attention Deficit Disorder Could be Affecting
Your Marriage Uk
Can
by Rick, Dr. Fowler, Jerilyn Fowler (This is a fantastic
book that I recommend to not only anyone who is married to a person
with ADD, but for the ADD partner as well. The Fowlers found several
methods to help their marriage as Rick has the ADD and will help you
understand how different your ADD partner thinks. Many suggestions
include: learning how to get your point across to your ADD partner,
organization skills, dealing with finances, anger and adjusting to
hyperactivity and impulsivity. The ADD partner tends to become overstressed,
irritable and "tunes out." The book discusses ways of dealing with
this. Dealing with ADD kids is discussed, the advantages of being
an ADD adult, and much is written about learning difficulties and
how to overcome poor study habits. Highly recommended).

Kaleidoscope: The Many Faces of Adult Attention Deficit Disorder
Uk
Can
by Joan Andrews, M.S., M.F.C.C., L.E.P., Denise E. Davis, M.S.,
M.F.C.C.
(Excellent large, comprehensive book not only for ADD adults, but
for teenagers, families and professionals as well. The ADD is discussed
in detail - the cause, the symptoms, recovery, medications, help in
the workplace, addictions, relationships, etc. The authors cite several
case examples throughout the book. The book is easily read and understood
and appears to be up to date).

In Poetry, One Family's Journey With Attention Deficit Disorder
by Jennifer East ( excellent book, the poetry is wonderful and
though provoking. Its intelligent, but written in a way a child could
read it and take the message to heart. If anything, its rather small
at 20 pages, but still very good.)
