A Radical Guide for Women with ADHD

— Can’t get up in the morning? Put several alarms on!

— Thanks, chief.

It’s interesting—people whose concentration is fine really think you haven’t tried setting hundreds of alarms or leaving reminders on every corner. But it doesn’t help. Things get postponed for weeks into the long box, bills remain unpaid, and the morning trip to work ends with another lateness. This condition is called attention deficit syndrome.

And the opposite situation: you can’t wait—queues or pointless chatter drive you crazy. On the road you’re furious if a person in front of you keeps too much distance. You can’t tolerate it; you quickly feel rage. But most of all, you always have to be somewhere. If the world isn’t rushing at deafening speed, if you don’t have to redo a thousand things at once, you experience emptiness, meaninglessness of what’s happening. Rest feels like wasted time.

That’s what people with hyperactivity syndrome feel like.

These two conditions are polar opposites of the same thing—developmental features of the brain. They are not a disease in the full sense of the word, but they still significantly ruin our lives. Worldwide they’re called ADHD, and in Russia—bad character. This book will help you understand why you’re like you are. And it will teach you how to cope with the difficulties that inevitably come with you. The methods developed by the authors can organize people with attention deficit and slow down hyperactive personalities.

And you’ll also find dozens of tests to determine your condition and self-control after completing rehabilitation programs.
