It's Not A Bloody Trend - Kat Brown - Bog

There has been an unmistakable rise in awareness and visibility of ADHD in recent years, but it is still a deeply misunderstood condition and one that can be tricky (and potentially costly) to diagnose. Test-taking has increased dramatically, particularly amongst women. What was once seen a condition associated chiefly with young boys is now being properly recognised as something that affects people of all genders (often presenting quite differently) and at all ages.But isn't this just a bloody trend, a fashionable label to pin on yourself or an excuse for being a bit disorganised or distracted? Kat Brown firmly argues against this view in this enlightening and definitive layman's guide to what ADHD is and how you can with live it.Based on Kat's own personal journey and with contributions by the leading clinical experts in this field, It's Not A Bloody Trend offers explanation, support and practical techniques for people in the years-long wait for a diagnosis, and is written with wry humour and sensitivity.Nobody else should spend their life feeling defective. Everyone deserves to have a user manual to their brain, and this is it for people with ADHD.
