Book cover for Driven to Distraction

This is one of the better books that I’ve read on ADHD. Previously, I worked my way through Taking Charge of Adult ADHD and You Mean I’m Not Lazy, Stupid or Crazy?!, neither of which comes anywhere near the strengths of Hallowell’s book.

It’s comprehensive without getting too bogged down in details. The issue with Taking Charge of Adult ADHD was that it read exactly as online articles do. You Mean I’m Not Lazy, Stupid or Crazy?! was wishy-washy and didn’t say anything significant. Hallowell’s book, on the other hand, is both professional and gives good suggestions. The case studies in here are also illuminating.

I think this should probably be the go-to for those curious about ADHD.
