Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisGroundbreaking and comprehensive, Driven to Distraction has been a lifeline to the approximately eighteen million Americans who are thought to have ADHD. Now the bestselling book is revised and updated with current medical information for a new generation searching for answers. Through vivid stories and case histories of patients--both adults and children--Hallowell and Ratey explore the varied forms ADHD takes, from hyperactivity to daydreaming. They dispel common myths, offer helpful coping tools, and give a thorough accounting of all treatment options as well as tips for dealing with a diagnosed child, partner, or family member. But most importantly, they focus on the positives that can come with this "disorder"--including high energy, intuitiveness, creativity, and enthusiasm.

  • Great info written for non-clinicians

    Lots of stories that cover characteristics you will relate to if you have ADHD. Nice list of common symptoms to help verify a suspected diagnosis. Not focused on "tests," but rather challenges in daily life. Covers the "hypo-active" side of ADHD (daydreamers, not interrupters, that make up around 25% of us); this is what our family deals with, and it's not easily diagnosed. It will help prepare you for doctor's visits and dealing with ADHD in life.

  • Great book about ADD in adults and children

    Many examples of ADD in adults and how it impacts marriage, family, personal success. Also good information about ADD in children. Lots of individual examples and how to deal with the disorder to gain control of your/your child's life.
