9.99 €
This book will definitely help those who like to start tasks the day after a deadline—ideally, perfectly—as well as those who are overwhelmed by their own pressure, consumed by shame due to their inability to concentrate, and depressed by procrastination.
Peggy Ramundo has updated information on ADHD specifically for Russian readers and completely adapted the medication section to Russian realities.
Authors Kate Kelly and Peggy Ramundo are legends in promoting ADHD awareness and understand their readers like no one else, having been diagnosed with ADHD themselves. With this open, warm, honest, and slightly ironic book, they aim not only to help you but also to entertain. The authors also devote ample attention to ADHD in women, which often goes undiagnosed.
You will learn:
- identify the strengths of your unique and extraordinary brain;
- organize your affairs, not perfectly or haphazardly, but reasonably well;
- navigate social situations deftly, especially if you're overly assertive or, conversely, overly timid;
- meditate in your own unique style;
- manage your sexuality and relationship anxiety while taking into account your differently wired mindset;
- create a mental first aid kit for overload and procrastination;
- understand the medications available in Russia and decide if you need them.
You are much more and more complex than your ADHD.
Edward Hallowell, author of the legendary book "Why I Get Distracted," writes: "I hope that everyone who reads this book will be filled with hope and enthusiasm, as well as knowledge, and strengthened in their determination to develop the talents that all people with ADHD naturally possess. The only real obstacles are fear, shame, and the loss of hope. This book will help dispel fear, extinguish shame, and restore hope."
Don't make studying this book a chore! There's no right way to read it. You can read short passages for 5 minutes at a time, or even read it backwards! Choose chapters that capture your attention and start with them.
