THE MISSING PIECE:
A Woman's Guide to Understanding, Diagnosing and Living with ADHD
Reading Audience
- Women who suspect they may have ADHD and the newly diagnosed who seek understanding, support, guidance, and hope.
- Partners, friends, workmates, employers, and families of women diagnosed with ADHD – who wish to gain insight into their world.
Simply Life Changing
For anyone who has or suspects they might have ADHD, or for those who simply want to understand their loved ones better who have the condition, this book is a must! It is a validating comfort. Within its pages are honest first hand accounts from those with the condition, highlighting everyday struggles, with lots of laughs to be had in between, while providing an objective view of diagnosis vs no diagnosis, medication vs no medication. I felt understood and validated for struggles I have dealt with as long as I can remember.
