Adhd: An Autobiography of Survival

Rating:
Summary: A true survivor8
Review: A must read for any parent or spouse of an ADHD person!! Not only was this informative & truly helpful, but it was incredibly touching! Dr. Kuendig took a personal approach adding in the trials and tribulations that so many of us (and our children) face. I found myself both, crying & laughing thru the entire book! I gave copies to my son & the school guidance counselor.

Summary: A real look . . .
Review: Dr Kuendig's book is just what it states in the title - the story of his lifetime struggles with ADHD. His perspective is very personal and reflective as well as professional sound, as he is now a psychologist treating patients with ADHD.

It's a wonderful story of one man's journey that you can use to get a perspective on living with ADHD. One warning: I was inclined to give it to my son to read; the story would be very comforting and encouraging to him. There are some discussions of a lifestyle of drugs and sex that may make it inappropriate for younger ages. Read it yourself first. It is well worth it.

Summary: the real story
Review: First-hand experience from a professional and successful adult with ADHD. Touching, truthful, emotional. Allows reader, both with ADHD and without, to relate to the characteristics of the disease.

Summary: Okay, But not what I was looking for
Review: This book was kind of interesting, but it really didn't satisfy my needs. I read The Little Monster: Growing Up with ADD and felt that was much better than this one. This book kind of told me what I already knew and didn't give me any strategies to help my son.
