reviewed ADHD 2.0 by Edward M. Hallowell M.D.

Edward M. Hallowell M.D., John J. Ratey M.D.: ADHD 2.0 (Paperback, 2022, Ballantine Books)

A good primer for the newly diagnosed or self-diagnosed ADHDer and their loved ones.

I read this book after a friend recommended it to me following my diagnosis. I found this book helpful in understanding the basic mechanisms of ADHD, why I flew under the radar for so long, and a few initial tools for managing my ADHD. I can see this also being informative for loved ones and carers to gain insight into the brain of the ADHDers in their life. It's not the end-all be-all of ADHD guides, but it's a great place to start.
