About This Book

A revolutionary new approach to ADD/ADHD featuring cutting-edge research and strategies to help listeners thrive, by the best-selling authors of the seminal books Driven to Distraction and Delivered from Distraction “An inspired road map for living with a distractible brain . . .

If you or your child suffer from ADHD, this book should be on your shelf. It will give you courage and hope.” (Michael Thompson, PhD, New York Times best-selling co-author of Raising Cai ) World-renowned authors Dr. Edward M.

Hallowell and Dr. John J. Ratey literally “wrote the book” on ADD/ADHD more than two decades ago.

Their best seller, Driven to Distraction , largely introduced this diagnosis to the public and sold more than a million copies along the way. Now, most people have heard of ADHD and know someone who may have it. But lost in the discussion of both childhood and adult diagnosis of ADHD is the potential upside: Many hugely successful entrepreneurs and highly creative people attribute their achievements to ADHD.

Also unknown to most are the recent research developments, including innovations that give a clearer understanding of the ADHD brain in action. In ADHD 2.0 , Drs. Hallowell and Ratey, both of whom have this “variable attention trait”, draw on the latest science to provide both parents and adults with ADHD a plan for minimizing the downside and maximizing the benefits of ADHD at any age.

They offer an arsenal of new strategies and lifestyle hacks for thriving with ADHD, including Find the right kind of difficult. Use these behavior assessments to discover the work, activity, or creative outlet best suited to an individual’s unique strengths. Reimagine environment.

What specific elements to look for - at home, at school, or in the workplace - to enhance the creativity and entrepreneurial spirit inherent in the ADHD mind. Embrace innate neurological tendencies. Take advantage of new findings about the brain’s default mode network and cerebellum, which confer major benefits for people with ADHD.

Tap into the healing power of connection. Tips for establishing and maintaining positive connection “the other Vitamind C” and the best antidote to the negativity that plagues so many people with ADHD. Consider medication.

Gets the facts about the underlying chemistry, side effects, and proven benefits of all the pharmaceutical options. As inspiring as it is practical, ADHD 2.0 will help you tap into the power of this mercurial condition and find the key that unlocks potential. This audiobook includes a PDF of charts and appendices from the book.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Sensational, and sensationalized

Very engaging and exciting ways of understanding the condition/symptoms. After looking deeper into the suggested therapies, quizzes, and techniques (Fisher Wallace Stimulation, Kolbe Test, Zing Performance), I was disappointed to find that they are either connected to Dr.Hallowell, not well established, inconclusive/poorly supported, or straight up disputed. Much of his references appear to be anecdotal or popularized rather than evidence-based. This makes me question the accuracy of much of the rest of the book due to his low discernment of peer-reviewed treatments and complementary materials.

This gives a more positive view of how to think about people who have been diagnosed with ADHD - not necessarily a deficit, but a positive when handled well

I haven't read a lot of this book but already it is so informative. My brother and I both have ADHD diagnosed much later in life. This book made me cry little just feeling more of an understanding of what I have lived through.

Written FOR someone with ADHD - finally.

This book is a gem for anyone WITH a diagnosis. How many books are "written for" ADHD, but are long, filled with anecdote after anecdote, and are essentially NOT going to be completed by someone who actually has ADHD? SO MANY. But this book is to the point, is filled with practical tools that you wouldn't naturally think of, real statistics, and more importantly - HOPE. This book is refreshing, useful and a book that I would hand over to family members who don't have good information to go by or have any clue what to think about this topic. A must have.
