À propos de cet audio

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this honest, friendly, and shame-free guide, the creator of the award-winning YouTube channel How to ADHD shares the hard-won insights and practical strategies that have helped her survive, even thrive, in a world not built for her brain.

“The world of ADHD has been waiting for this book with bated breath for many years. If there’s a fairy godmother of our lot, it’s Jessica McCabe.”—Edward Hallowell, MD, coauthor of Driven to Distraction and ADHD 2.0

Forget “try harder.” When your brain works differently, you need to try different.

Diagnosed with ADHD at age twelve, Jessica struggled with a brain that she didn’t understand. She lost things constantly, couldn’t finish projects, and felt like she was putting more effort in than everyone around her while falling further and further behind. At thirty-two years old—broke, divorced, and living with her mom—Jessica decided to look more deeply into her ADHD challenges. She reached out to experts, devoured articles, and shared her discoveries on YouTube.

In How to ADHD, Jessica reveals the tools that have changed her life while offering an unflinching look at the realities of living with ADHD. The key to navigating a world not built for the neurodivergent brain, she discovered, isn’t to fix or fight against its natural tendencies but to understand and work with them. She explains how ADHD affects everyday life, covering executive function impairments, rejection sensitivity, difficulties with attention regulation, and more. You’ll also find ADHD-specific strategies for adapting your environment, routines, and systems, including:

Boost the signal and decrease the noise. Facilitate focus by putting your goals where you can see them and fighting distractions with distractions.
Have less stuff to manage. Learn why you have trouble planning and prioritizing, and why doing more starts with doing less.
Build your “time wisdom.” Work backward when you plan, and track how long it actually takes you to do something.
Learn about your emotions. Understand how naming your emotions and letting yourself experience them can make them easier to regulate.

With quotes from Jessica’s online community, chapter summaries, and reading shortcuts designed for the neurodivergent reader, How to ADHD will help you recognize your strengths and challenges, tackle “bad brain days,” and be kinder to yourself in the process.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“The world of ADHD has been waiting for this book with bated breath for many years. If there’s a fairy godmother of our lot, it’s Jessica McCabe. She has a foolproof way of instilling hope, an uncanny intuition, and a preternatural understanding of the condition so misleadingly called ADHD. She turns pain into the wisdom and hard-earned joy you’ll find in this bountiful gift to us all.” —Edward Hallowell, MD, coauthor of Driven to Distraction and ADHD 2.0

“Jessica McCabe writes with honesty, intelligence and warmth about living and growing with ADHD. McCabe has created something that is more than a guide. This book is like the friend/coach/therapist you’ve always wanted to help you understand how to work with your unique brain, improve daily functioning skills, and love yourself in the process. I learned a lot from reading this book and will definitely be recommending it to colleagues and clients!” —Sharon Saline, PsyD, author of What Your ADHD Child Wishes You Knew and The ADHD Solution Deck

How to ADHD is a must-read book. From the ADHD-friendly layout to practical tips that help readers feel comfortable in their own skin, Jessica McCabe delivers what they need to take their next leap in life. She is vulnerable, encouraging, and inspirational. But, most of all, she gets what it's like to live with a neurodivergent brain.” —Caroline Maguire, bestselling author of Why Will No One Play with Me?

Highly engaging; many useful tools

If you were looking to find tools that can help you mitigate some of the most serious effects of your ADHD it seems very unlikely to me that you will do better than this book—Especially if you’re an auditory learner. I plan to listen to it and listen to it at least several times. Highly recommended

Helping Hearts to Heart

As a heart, so much of this book was illuminating. It helped me to love my hubby more, and feel less frustrated by certain reactions and behaviours I didn't previously understand. Thank you for vulnerability.

Super Helpful and Insightful

This book is a must-have for understanding how neurodivergent brains work. It explores the good, the bad, and the unique aspects of having a brain that differs from the neurotypical.

I hope parents, teachers, and anyone interested in learning about ADHD will read this. The tools in this book are valuable for everyone!

Jessica’s storytelling and narration are fantastic. Thank you, Jessica, for sharing your story and helping us understand ours!

Surpassed expectations

I’ve listened to a good many ADHD books at this point, and while I love this person‘s YouTube channel, I wasn’t sure how much more new information I would get. But I’m quite surprised at how much I am learning, and that I’m even taking some notes. I really appreciate the personal and scientific information offered, and have gotten a good deal of value from this.

The only book on ADHD that’s a must-read

If you’ve been recently diagnosed with ADHD or have just started entertaining the idea that you may be neurodivergent, and wanted to find a book on the subject matter, this is by far THE best book on the subject matter. Concise chapters with science-backed information delivered in a format that is easily digestible for ADHD brains. Jessica’s journey is a touching and very relatable one. I can’t recommend this enough.

The best audiobook for what ADHD feels like and why

I was sceptical at first, fearing to be put into a box through scientific jargon. The author did an incredible job just doing the opposite. She explains but she does not overwhelm with informations. It’s clearly written by someone with ADHD for people with ADHD.
