The first self-help audio program by ADD adults for ADD adults!
Attention Deficit Disorder, the most common learning and behavioral problem among children, also affects millions of adult Americans, more of which are being diagnosed with this potentially disabling condition every day.
Now Kate Kelly, a clinical psychiatric nurse, and Peggy Ramundo, a specialist in learning disorders — both of whom were diagnosed with ADD after discovering it in their children — bring together their considerable personal and professional experiences to create the essential guide to identifying, understanding, and managing the dynamics of ADD in adults.
You Mean I’m Not Lazy, Stupid Or Crazy?! provides accurate information, practical “how-to’s,” up-to-date research findings and moral support, and explores such issues as:
the differences unique to ADD adults and their impact on daily life
the diagnostic process
treatment options
personal, family, and work relationships
Already well respected across the country, You Mean I’m Not Lazy, Stupid Or Crazy?! is the indispensable reference for anyone who faces the challenge of ADD on a daily basis.
