Description
Edward Hallowell and John Ratey wrote Driven to Distraction decades ago and changed how a lot of people understood ADHD; this is their update, folding in what’s been learned since about the condition and what actually helps. Their argument isn’t that ADHD is something to merely cope with — they describe a brain that, managed well, can hyperfocus its way past neurotypical peers on the right kind of problem. The strategies here lean on exercise, sleep, and nutrition as much as medication, aimed at both children and adults living with it.
