“A godsend!”—Davina McCall

everything and so much more I needed to hear this book and I am so greatful more than words can express.

I loved it all it was a book filled with things I needed to hear and fully acknowledge about my own struggles and my ADHD.

Excellent

I can’t express how much I needed to hear this book. Clearly written, engaging stories, all told authentically. It’s actually changed my life for the better.

his and her perspectives

I would hear her describe her struggles that are also my struggles then I would hear him understand her and explain how to support her. I learned about myself and supports that would work. I also realize I've not seen any of the support described in my life. I cried with validation tears and hope anyone that wants to understand their adhd lady will also read this. 5 stars. absolutely the best info and very realistic.

Honest Truth Bombs

As a fellow ADHD-er…this truly was the kick in the ass I needed to embolden myself & become my own advocate.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you *so much* for writing this book. I cried, I laughed, I commiserated. I feel validated in my experiences & choices & that in itself is healing. Your vulnerability in sharing these deeply personal stories inspired me to be more open to my diagnosis.

It is okay to have ADHD & it is also okay to struggle with the symptoms. We have a path forward…it just might be a little different than the neurotypical one.

late diagnosed ADHD

felt very seen and related to all of the lies and appreciated their format of the lies we tell and how to replace them. and how our loved ones can be frustrated but supportive and still validated
