Synopsis

Popular science audiobook on ADHD in women interspersed with real stories from amazing ADHD women

ADHD girls and women often fall under the radar. This rigorous and accessible audiobook connects current research (which until recently has mostly focused on men) to the lived experiences of girls and women with ADHD, weaving in their personal struggles and breakthroughs throughout their lives from childhood and the teen years through to motherhood, menopause and beyond.

Family doctor, psychiatrist, and international ADHD expert Lotta Borg Skoglund combines years of experience in the treatment and assessment of ADHD with the powerful testimonies of the women she has encountered along the way, exploring issues such as hormonal changes, emotional regulation, organisation and concentration, relationships, work, and treatment. She provides valuable tips and insights along with powerful strategies as to how ADHD girls and women can achieve the self-understanding they need to live lives to their best potential.

Goodreads review by Maya on May 24, 2024

4/5 stars, I loved this book. As a woman with ADHD, I have yet to find a book about mental health and ADHD that was so relatable and I felt very seen. I also got a chance to think of other ways my ADHD affects my life that I wouldn't normally associate with ADHD. It was very insightful but also very......more

I highly recommend Skoglund's book ADHD Girls to Women to any woman who has recently been diagnosed with ADHD or suspect she may have ADHD. This was a topic of particular interest to me since I was only diagnosed this year as an adult (even though both of my brothers were diagnosed in elementary sch......more
