Hi Kydilee,
I am messy and I procrastinate and I have ADD. However, sometimes I can be very precise and organised – but the mental effort is huge!
Interestingly when I read the title to the thread I didn’t even think about an ADHD book. I am reading (or rather listening to) ‘The Casual Vacancy’ by J.K. Rowling. I never got into Harry Potter books but I loved the films. This is I believe her first ‘adult’ book. At first I thought it a bit slow but it’s really growing on me. Her attention to detail in terms of people’s behaviour and thoughts and attiitudes is brilliant.
So for once my mind didn’t dwell on ADHD – I see this as maybe finally I am accepting it’s who I am. Or maybe I just forgot and didn’t focus.
But for ADHD books I like:
Kolberg and Nadeau – ADD-friendly ways to organise your life.
Barkley – Taking charge of adult ADHD
If you’re new to ADHD and unsure of the symptoms then the DVD in the shop here – ADD and Loving It – is worth watching. Or just check out all the videos here on the site.
