Why Adults with ADHD Are So Ashamed and What We Can Do to Help

Dirty Laundry

This book is the equivalent of someone saying, “Oh, you have ADHD? Just make a to-do list!” It talks down to readers, leans heavily on neurotypical saviorism, and repeats itself endlessly.

Rox shares a dull anecdote, then tells us how Rich helps her. Then Rich retells the same story like he’s offering new insight. Spoiler: he isn’t. The phrase “your ADHDer” pops up like an annoying tic—condescending and oddly possessive.

It could’ve been a blog post. Maybe even a tweet.
