A great and interesting self-help book for adults to help give them back empowerment and to embrace and heal themselves from their childhood experiences with diagnosis or non-diagnosis as a child emerging into adulthood. As someone with adult ADHD diagnosis this book I found the book a little long winded, hard to read and understand. I found myself being lost and bored while being interested in something else. I was able to put the book back down and pick up later when my mind could refocus. It is a fantastic informative book which you can answer questions and receive the answers afterwards and being able to know what you need to change or alter and move forward. You are able to reprogram your brain and thinking, also includes a section to help with parenting skills.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Living Traditions; Healing Arts Press via NetGalley for my honest review of the book Living With ADHD. The opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own thoughts, feelings and viewpoints of the book. #LivingwithADHD #NetGalley

A useful and interesting book from someone who actually has ADHD. Good to find another book on ADHD written for adults and by an adult with ADHD.

Always on the hunt for ADHD resources so excited to hear they were publishing! It was good but ironically I had trouble focusing

From someone who has AD, I was hoping for a book that could give me more solutions for some daily problems, but it didn't pick my interest, and it's more about inspiration and stories than really how to live with ADHD.
It can give you inspiration or motivation with some stories the author tells, or explain to a non-adhd what it can be like, but not much science or solutions for those who have the disability.

Hartmann's guide to ADHD is less scientific than anecdotal, but his stories of people living successfully with ADHD will likely be inspirational to anyone who has--or lives with, or is related to--ADHD.

A great book for anyone who has a loved one or is curious about ADHD. It is a fairly easy read. After reading this book, I want to learn even more.

As someone with ADHD, I found this to be a bit preachy and not too particularly helpful. I also reviewed his other book "ADHD" that was published late last year and felt some of the same issues from that book as well. It feels more like a "musings around handling someone with ADHD." I've felt that his work tends to downplay the importance of medication and support, and are more of a bemusement of modern society and how people with ADHD just aren't made for this society of farmers... which just isn't true. Not something I'd really suggest to read.
