Produktbeschreibung
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders, yet it remains one of the most misunderstood. In this eye-opening and compassionate book, seasoned clinician Maggie Alexander shares the wisdom of over 600 clients, blending cutting-edge research and clinical practice, compelling stories, and the powerful tools of functional medicine to redefine how we understand and treat ADHD. Shine with ADHD challenges persistent myths and misinformation that plague both medical providers and the public. Many still believe ADHD isn't real, unaware of its biological roots in neurotransmitter deficiencies and genetic origins. The author sheds light on the different subtypes of ADHD, clarifies confusion surrounding terms like "ADD," and introduces symptoms rarely discussed, such as Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD), one of the most disruptive symptoms for those affected. Treatment is presented as holistic and multidimensional. Readers will find guidance on the precise and personalized use of medications-including genetic testing to tailor interventions, recommended lab testing, and nutrition-as well as behavioral strategies like ADHD coaching, routines, and environmental modifications. The author emphasizes the importance of shifting our narrative around ADHD-from labeling individuals as inattentive or disruptive to recognizing their creativity, energy, and truth-seeking nature. Special chapters offer actionable advice on parenting children with ADHD, supporting girls and women (often underdiagnosed), managing sleep, time, and emotional regulation, and improving communication in romantic relationships. Employers and educators will also find helpful tools for supporting individuals with ADHD in the workplace and classroom. Ultimately, this book is a call to replace stigma with science, judgment with empathy, and limitation with potential-offering a deeply informed, empowering guide for anyone impacted by ADHD.
