Navigating Life as a Neurodivergent Adult
Grace Timothy is a lifestyle writer who has contributed to a number of publications, hosts a podcast and is a brand consultant. Since being diagnosed with ADHD in 2021, she has been on a mission to spread awareness of the lived experience of ADHD in women and non-binary people , in whom ADHD is so often missed.
As a writer and podcaster, the author speaks to those living with ADHD to explore traits specific to women, grounding each chapter in clinical research and expert commentary.
This is an intensely personal book that will resonate with some adult readers who either have a diagnosis of ADHD or are seeking insights into their mental and physical symptoms that are causing concern.
With a foreword from a consultant psychiatrist, who has known the author for three years, this is an insightful book that will be of interest to many adult females who are trying to come to grips with understanding their neurodivergent profile.
Chapters include:
Assessment and diagnosis
Health
Friendships
Love
Parenting
The book also includes links to resources, a glossary and endnotes and is an interesting and engaging read that will have a wide appeal at a time when referrals for ADHD assessment are soaring and waiting lists are growing.
