About this listen
Understanding Girls with ADHD does not shy away from key areas of controversy. How, for example, can a family know whether it's ADHD or another set of problems that's the primary issue? How does one deal with the potential use of medication, which is plagued by bad press and abundant myths but which can, as part of a multi-faceted treatment plan, provide great benefit if the right dose is found and if the doctor works with the family to monitor positive effects and side effects carefully? What about longterm risk for eating pathology, substance abuse, and other difficult areas of impairment of salience for girls? How can girls and their families break through the thicket of negative expectations and sometimes toxic family interactions to pave the way for a different set of outcomes?
Always sensitive, and without hesitation in providing an authoritative tone, this book will empower girls and their families in ways that are sorely needed. Its emphasis on gender-specific manifestations of ADHD and its inclusion of practical means of attacking the executive function deficits that plague girls and women with ADHD will ensure its continued status as core guidebook.

Amazing awareness
This book is so helpful in understanding the breadth of impact that adhd has on one’s behaviours and the vast symptoms that it can produce. It has helped me understand and empathize with my child at a whole new level. I am so proud of how my daughter is doing with all this against her.

Informative but depressing
This book definitely gave some good insights and a better understanding of ADHD. From a scientific standpoint it’s a good book, however, it definitely is very doom and gloom without much hope. There are so many people with ADHD that thrive and this book seems to completely overlook it.

Informative But So Boring !
I think this book would have been good if it weren’t so incredibly boring to listen to . I do not have ADHD but if I did there is no way I would be able to get through this book . The books has an incredible amount of information but zero personality.
