Acerca de esta escucha
In spite of conclusive research and evidence, such as what has been shared so far, produced by the medical, psychological and educational communities, there are skeptics who still cling to the claim that ADHD is not "real". In spite of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, there are those who persist in voicing their opinions that ADHD is just an excuse for people who are lazy or sloppy, or to cover up for ineffective parenting.
There are also those who deny the existence of ADHD as an avoidance tactic to escape accepting their own diagnosis or the diagnosis of a loved one, usually their own child. This "sticking the head in the sand" approach is often characterized by statements such as "There’s nothing wrong with that boy. He just needs more discipline." Or even "Oh, she’s fine. She’s just whining…she can do her homework just fine if she would only put her mind to it."
One other popular myth is the belief that children outgrow ADHD. In reality, more than 70% of the children diagnosed with ADHD will continue to have it throughout adolescence, and 75% of those continue to need manage ADHD symptoms throughout adulthood. The current estimate is that 6% of the adult population has, most of whom are undiagnosed. Of those who do have formal diagnosis, only one in 10 actively seeks treatment and management strategies.

In 1994, Driven to Distraction sparked a revolution in our understanding of attention deficit disorder. Now a second revolution is under way in the approach to ADD, and the news is great. Drug therapies, our understanding of the role of diet and exercise, even the way we define the disorder, all are changing radically. And doctors are realizing that millions of adults suffer from this condition, though the vast majority of them remain undiagnosed and untreated.

Parenting is hard work. Throw in something like ADHD, and it can seem impossible. Do you often feel stressed, frustrated, disrespected, and just plain tired? Don’t worry: You’re not alone. Nearly 6.2 million children in the United States have been diagnosed with ADHD–you share the faith of all those parents. When you think about the difficulties you face in parenting an ADHD child, you should also think about the difficulties they face navigating a world that wasn’t created with them in mind.

Whether your child has only been recently diagnosed with ADHD or you’ve been living with their condition for quite a while, it’s normal for parents to feel worried, overwhelmed, and exhausted most of the time. However, keep in mind that ADHD is a condition, not a life sentence. It’s entirely possible for your young one to succeed because of their condition–not despite it. The key is learning how to address your child’s condition properly and consistently at the soonest time possible–the earlier you manage it, the higher their chances of success and happiness.

Research suggests that close to 10 percent of kids between ages 5 and 15 in the US have ADHD issues…and there’s a large number of kids that have no medical or therapeutic assistance.

If you want to prepare your child for the "real world" and help them become successful adults one day, this book is your way forward. Your child is just as confused as you are about all the competing demands and expectations of being a teen in today's complex world. I understand this because I am a parent myself, a school psychologist, and a counselor. My many years of working with adolescents and their parents have shown me that growth and change are indeed possible!

Are you a woman who has been diagnosed with ADHD? Are you looking for practical and immediate solutions to bring order in your life, freeing your mind from the constraints, doubts, and preconceptions you've accumulated over the years? Between the fear of discovery, anxious behavior, and disorganization, being a woman with ADHD is not easy. Living with ADHD is a continuous cycle of forgetfulness, tasks left undone, impulsivity, low self-esteem, and often depression. If this sounds familiar, you can turn it around today.
