Dirty Laundry: Why adults with ADHD are so ashamed and what we can do to help - THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

Product Information

If you already know anything about ADHD you are unlikely to learn anything from this lightweight work. When you stack years of feeling like a failure on top of each other, you get a person with rock-bottom self-esteem. You are both a credit to the ADHD community and through this book have provided me with hope when looking into the future! More recently it’s been language over physical and mental disabilities, and even the use of the word disability to describe deafness and ADHD.

If you’re like Rox and have lived with diagnosed or undiagnosed ADHD, you may have struggled with this. It's clear they've both done a lot of work in therapy (separately and probably together) and they pay it forward to people (like myself) who are fresh on their journey and still processing.

It was the same information repeated - but each had perspective A: adhd author, and then the same stuff again from perspective B: neurotypical author. Nawet gdy sama autorka nie doświadcza konkretnych sytuacji, mogło by tu zostać opisane dla bardziej szerokiej perspektywy. My time blindness is not so bad, I never lose my keys, miss flights or forget to clean myself to the point of BO. Filled with heartbreak and humour in equal measure, Dirty Laundry is an invaluable resource both for neurodivergents and the people who love them. I couldn’t help giggling at the “hyper-focusing on this book” line as I sat doing oddball tasks intending to do just that.

Both Apple and Google state that they ensure that only users who have actually downloaded the app can submit a review. Given the majority of the books advice is 'be heavily reliant on someone neurotypical for everything' its not really a surprise. Picture this: Rox is in her university library, passionately helping her fellow students study for their upcoming economics exam.Rox’s humour and honesty amidst the tumult of coming to terms with the 10 key symptoms of her adult ADHD diagnosis, and Rich’s commitment to learning, gently challenging and empathising, will no doubt provoke ’a-ha!
