Résumé

Pre-order the ground-breaking memoir of one woman coming to terms with her ADHD diagnosis, shedding new light on her past, her family history and reframing the condition __________For Carla Ciccone, the feeling of not quite knowing how to perform adult life was all too familiar. At 39 years old, Carla was finally diagnosed with ADHD after a lifetime of shame and self-blame. Yet while the diagnosis came with a sense of relief, the knowledge that a significant brain disorder, for too long framed as a condition for restless little boys, had gone unnoticed all her life didn't sit right with her.
Understanding the ways in which ADHD has been framed scientifically and historically made Carla realise how she had created a narrative where her ADHD symptoms were deep personality flaws and left her ashamed and feeling unworthy. Through scientific research and interviews with international experts, Carla explores how science gendered the disorder, allowing girls to struggle for years in silence.
Carla's deeply personal account serves as a source of unwavering validation, explanation and solace for all women with ADHD who are embarking upon their own discoveries and striving to reimagine how they see themselves, reframe their pasts and project their hopeful futures.__________
