Mastering Life with ADHD

Book Description

A self-help guide for teenagers diagnosed with ADHD to help manage your symptoms successfully.

If you have been struggling with focus and inattention, if you have experienced hyperactive or impulsive behaviour, and if you have had trouble with regulating your emotions, it may be related to a diagnosis of ADHD.

This book provides young people with an overview of ADHD, explaining what it is, what causes it, and what can be done to manage the challenges of ADHD at school, at home and in the workplace.

Written by clinicians with many years of experience working in services for children and adolescents, this book follows an approach called cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which is a really useful way of helping us to make sense of our experiences and overcome the difficulties that we face. CBT is an evidence-based approach, which means that lots of research has been done to evaluate it and show that it can be helpful.

The book includes help and support on:
· How ADHD can look different in girls and boys
· What medication can help with ADHD symptoms
· Understanding autism, ADHD and neurodiversity
· How to get help from family, friends or professionals if you are struggling

Overcoming for Teenagers is a series to support young people through common mental health issues during adolescence, using scientific techniques that have been proven to work.

Series editor: Associate Professor Polly Waite
