Winner, Independent Press Awards, Psychology In this
book internationally renowned ADHD expert Dr. Russell Barkley
explains the science behind ADHD and how you can tell if your
spouse, partner, friend, adult child, or sibling may have it.Dr.
Barkley shows how to guide your loved one toward the right
treatment, and what to do if they don't want treatment. ADHD
doesn't just affect kids — adults can have it too. This will come
as no surprise if you are close to an adult who has problems with
attention, concentration, distractibility, impulsiveness,
forgetfulness, or self-control (or all of these symptoms). The good
news is that with effective treatment your loved one with ADHD can
have a happier, more successful life and a stronger, closer
relationship with you and others. Adults with ADHD can be
successful, achieve their goals, and live out big dreams—and you
can help. You can set boundaries to manage your own emotional and
financial stress, too. In When an Adult You Love Has ADHD you
will learn practical steps for helping your loved one accept and
manage their disorder, and pursue paths in life where ADHD might
not pose such a big problem. Dr. Barkley shows how to guide your
loved one toward the right treatment and, using real-life examples,
answers questions such as: What health risks does ADHD impose on
those who have it? Why am I feeling resentful toward my loved one
with ADHD? What can I do to help my loved one at home, at work, and
in other areas of life? How can I avoid wasting time and money on
sham treatments? What if my loved one doesn't want help? Adults
with ADHD can achieve their goals and live out big dreams — and
you can help. In this book you will learn practical steps for
helping your loved one accept and manage their disorder, and pursue
unique, often nontraditional pathways to success.
