Women with Attention Deficit Disorder: Embrace Your Differences and Transform Your Life58 reviews
Sari Solden

Underwood Books, 2005

U should buy this book!
I think this is one of the best books for women with Add. Most books are boring and technical or focus on children with ADD. This book is written for women who are often left behind in being diagnosed correctly or who want info for themselves. I kept this book and like to read it again now and then to get inspiration. Sari Solden is great at keeping it simple so everyone can understand the info ...
  
  











  



  
Shadow Syndromes: The Mild Forms of Major Mental Disorders That Sabotage Us31 reviews
John J. Ratey

Bantam, 1998

Cultivate your shadow hypochondriasis
Shadows Syndromes is a worthy read, in that it does a good job of highlighting the major disconnect between diagnostic categories and reality. While the DSM model has its uses (research and billing being the only two I can think of right now), it also serves to reify the notion that mental illnesses are precise, discreet disorders. Any one with an ounce of clinic experience will tell you that ...

ADD Success Stories: A Guide to Fulfillment for Families with Attention Deficit Disorder8 reviews
Thom Hartmann

Underwood Books, 1995

ADD Success Stories - Awesome
As a "hunter" myself, I never could get past all that boring ADD diagnotic stuff about receptors, etc. This was the first book on ADD that was interesting enough to read. It confirmed, for me, what I thought all along. I'm not defective, just different. Many gifted people throughout history have been just tormented by our boring farmer society. This book has also helped my to deal ...

Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain38 reviews
John J. Ratey

Little, Brown and Company, 2008

An Energizing Read ... now for my running shoes
I knew next to nothing about the brain's physiology and less about the physiology's relationship to the rest of the body. While I remain no expert in the realm of neuroscience, I found `Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain' a captivating read. For the novice - meaning me - I learned something about the value of exercise in maintaining, on occasion improving, the health ...

A User's Guide to the Brain: Perception, Attention, and the Four Theaters of the Brain36 reviews
John J. Ratey

An excellent guide to the brain
This is an excellent guide to the brain and how it works. The focus on movement and its role in the brain, as well as neuro-chemistry provides fascinating insights into how the brain works and even how such disorders as ADHD are caused by neurological deficits. The book is written in easy to understand language, but also with an appreciation of the potential reader. I definitely recommend it as a ...

Hazelden, 1995

A Fairly Thorough Yet Basic Workbook
This book offers some basic information on ADD/ADHD and substance abuse.

This is a great starter for clients just beginning to grapple with the reality and impact of these issues on their lives.
