'Essential reading' Tom Watson
From the hosts of The ADHD Adults, this is the straight-talking, relatable guide to understanding adult ADHD without the jargon, shame or sugar-coating.
In ADHD Unpacked, Alex and James combine science, lived experience and dark humour to explain what ADHD really looks like in everyday life, from missed deadlines and emotional overwhelm, to hyperfocus and burnout.
Inside, you'll discover:
- What ADHD actually is (and what it isn't)
- Why focus, motivation and emotion regulation can feel so hard
- The truth about medication, diagnosis and common myths
- Practical tools to help you cope, function and feel more in control
Blending research with brutally honest personal insight, this is a guide that doesn't talk down to you - it gets it.
Whether you have ADHD, think you might, or want to better support someone who does, this book will help you make sense of your brain and build a life that works with it - not against it.
'A true gift to the community' Hana Walker Brown, author of A Delicate Game
'A deep dive into the science and misunderstandings of ADHD' Anita Bhagwandas, author of Ugly
