Embrace Neurodiversity, Live Boldy, and Break Through Barriers

A Radical Guide for Women with ADHD

Every year, millions of withdrawn little girls and chronically overwhelmed women go undiagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder because they don't fit the stereotypical profile: they’re not fast-talking, hyperactive, or inattentive, and they are not male. Sari Solden’s groundbreaking study reveals that ADD affects just as many women as men, and that the resulting depression, disorganization, anxiety, and underachievement are also symptoms of ADD. Newly revised and updated to reflect the latest clinical research, the book explores treatment and counseling options, and uses real-life case histories to examine the special challenges women with ADD and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) face, such as the shame of not fulfilling societal expectations. Included is a brand new chapter on friendship for women with ADHD. Three empowering steps — restructuring one's life, renegotiating relationships, and redefining self-image — help women take control of their lives and enjoy success on their own terms.

Live boldly as a woman with ADHD! This radical guide will show you how to cultivate your individual strengths, honor your neurodiversity, and learn to communicate with confidence and clarity. If you are a woman with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), you’ve probably known—all your life—that you’re different. As girls, we learn which behaviors, thinking, learning, and working styles are preferred, which are accepted and tolerated, and which are frowned upon. These preferences are communicated in innumerable ways—from media and books to our first-grade classroom to conversations with our classmates and parents. Over the course of a lifetime, women with ADHD learn through various channels that the way they think, work, speak, relate, and act does not match up with the preferred way of being in the world. In short, they learn that difference is bad. And, since these women know that they are different, they learn that they are bad. It’s time for a change. A Radical Guide for Women with ADHD is the first guided workbook for women with ADHD designed to break the cycle of negative self-talk and shame-based narratives that stem from the common and limiting belief that brain differences are character flaws. In this unique guide, you’ll find a groundbreaking approach that blends traditional ADHD treatment with contemporary treatment methods, such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), to help you untangle yourself from the beliefs that have kept you from reaching your potential in life. If you’re ready to develop a strong, bold, and confident sense of self, embrace your unique brain-based differences, and cultivate your individual strengths, this step-by-step workbook will help guide the way.

Sari Solden specializes in working with ADD adults and their partners. Her first book, Women with Attention Deficit Disorder, has sold more than 100,000 copies worldwide. Now, in Journeys Through ADDulthood, she takes a groundbreaking look at the emotional turmoil often precipitated by ADD and offers readers roadmaps to richer, happier lives. Living with ADD affects the development of one's view of self, especially for those not diagnosed until adulthood, after an entire childhood of feeling "different" without knowing why. There are no quick fixes-Solden takes a longer view of the challenges and sees living with ADD as an ongoing internal process. Journeys Through ADDulthood is a step-by-step guide through three stages, or journeys: toward understanding your brain and your primary symptoms; toward discovering your true identity and embracing your uniqueness; and toward learning to share your true self to connect with others. Illuminating her points based on the real-life journeys of two men and two women, Solden offers self-help exercises at the end of each chapter to point the way around common roadblocks on the road to empowerment, self-fulfillment, and the realization of long-buried dreams and goals.

Discover a New Sense of Identity and Meaning with Attention Deficit Disorder

Journeys Through ADDulthood

Aus dem Rahmen fallen kommt nicht gut an. Besonders Frauen mit ADHS erfahren das tagtäglich im Job und Privatleben. Bereits als Mädchen erleben sie eine Gesellschaft, die bestimmte Denk-, Lern- und Lebensweisen vorzieht. Diese Glaubenssätze werden auf unzählige Arten vermittelt und erzeugen Gefühle der Unzulänglichkeit und Unangepasstheit. Die ADHS-Expertinnen Sari Solden und Michelle Frank unterstützen in ihrem Workbook Frauen mit Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit- und Hyperaktivitätsstörung dabei, ihre individuellen Stärken einzusetzen, mit Selbstvertrauen und Klarheit zu kommunizieren und für sich selbst einzustehen. Dabei gehen die Psychologinnen mit Übungen, Strategien und neuartigen Techniken auf die einzelnen Aspekte von ADHS ein, brechen Denkmuster auf und sagen dem Slogan »Was nicht passt, wird passend gemacht« den Kampf an. Durch ihren Ansatz, die traditionelle ADHS-Behandlung mit modernen Behandlungsmethoden wie der Akzeptanz- und Commitment-Therapie (ACT) zu verbinden, können Frauen aktiv ihr volles Potenzial im Leben ausschöpfen und auf den Rahmen pfeifen.

MUJERES CON TRASTORNOS POR DÉFICIT DE ATENCIÓN Acepte sus diferencias y transforme su vida Descripción: Mujeres con trastornos por déficit de atención, un libro innovador escrito por la psicoterapeuta Sari Solden, MS, LMFT, explica cómo cada año millones de niñas retraídas y mujeres crónicamente agobiadas no son diagnosticadas con el Trastorno por Déficit de Atención por no encajar en un perfil estereotipado: no hablan rápido, no son hiperactivas ni inatentivas y no son hombres. Este libro pionero, publicado originalmente en inglés en 1995, ha ayudado a cientos de miles de mujeres de todo el mundo, atormentadas y generalmente no diagnosticadas, que no se ajustaban al estereotipo del TDAH, a llegar a entender finalmente sus problemas específicos, así como a apreciar sus talentos únicos. Mujeres con trastornos por déficit de atención, un libro querido por las mujeres de todo el mundo, explora las opciones de tratamiento y terapia, utiliza historias de casos de la vida real para examinar los desafíos específicos que enfrentan las mujeres con TDAH y retrata de un modo conmovedor la vergüenza que sienten las mujeres cuando se les dificulta cumplir con las expectativas sociales y de género. Solden explica que el TDA/H afecta a tantas mujeres como a hombres y suele conducir a la depresión, la desorganización, la ansiedad y el bajo rendimiento. Hay tres pasos que fortalecen a la mujer para que tome control de su vida y disfrute el éxito por sí misma: reestructurar su vida, renegociar las relaciones y redefinir la imagen propia. Mujeres con trastornos por déficit de atención, un clásico en el campo del TDAH en adultos, está ahora disponible por primera vez en español y sólo en formato digital. En inglés, su formato electrónico ha sido un best seller constante desde su lanzamiento en 2012. Lo que han dicho los expertos en esta materia: "Sari Solden ha utilizado su experiencia personal y profesional para iluminar el oscuro clóset habitado por demasiadas mujeres con TDAH... Sari fortalece a las mujeres con TDAH dándole validez a sus vivencias como seres humanos útiles que se esfuerzan a pesar de sus graves problemas de organización en muchas áreas de su vida". (Kate Kelly y Peggy Ramundo, autoras de You Mean I'm Not Lazy, Stupid, or Crazy.) "Lo que me encanta del enfoque de Sari es que es personal, humilde, divertido y real. Ella capta el espíritu del TDAH desde la perspectiva de una mujer y ofrece un enfoque positivo y práctico para mejorar la vida. Disfruto su humor, su sensibilidad y su amabilidad". (Dr. Edward Hallowell, coautor de Driven to Distraction)
