Adult ADD

Posted by Ugenia Kay on March 5, 2001, at 11:03:48

I have recently been given a book "Driven to Distraction", written by Drs. E. M. Hallowell & J. J. Ratey,by counselor. I have always considered myself very intelligent, and still do! However I have always had a porblem with being organized; a very big problem. If there is anyone out there who has any advice or good sites on this subject, I wouuld appreciate some feedback. I also have daughter with ADD although she does not like to admit it. I feel that if we share this problem, I will be able to transfer what I learn to help her. Thanks, U. Kay

Try the book "Answers to Distraction" by the same authors. Lots of good ideas to cope.

I really like the book "Women with Attention Deficit Disorder" by Sari Solden. It addresses issues specific to females and gives a lot of attention to inattentive type ADHD.

The site add.about.com has many articles and links. You can learn just about everything you'd want to know about ADHD either on the site itself or by following the links. It also has a bulletin board, similar to this one, but specific to ADHD.
