Taking Charge of Adult ADHD, Second Edition - Book Trailer

[@suzychristensen8977]

I just bought the book. 58 yrs old and just now understanding. Thank you, this is a life changer!

[@GuilfordPress]

We're so happy to hear this!

[@jed88]

When I listen to Russell regarding AD/HD, it's a grim outlook. However, is this book helpful? If so how/why?

[@suzychristensen8977]

@@jed88 Hi Jay. The neuroscience is rapidly unfolding. I suggest learning from several perspectives. Russell’s career supports ADHD and he himself is ADHD. We can do research and learn more every day. Russell got us on the map

[@jed88]

@@suzychristensen8977 Yes, Russell’s career supports ADHD. Didn't know he himself has ADHD. Glad the neuroscience is rapidly unfolding.

i am very grateful that this person exists

[@sherir3668]

So grateful for him!! He is truly compassionate and sympathic of the issues we deal with!!

[@takiyaazrin7562]

Also other researchers that help to expand the knowledge

[@MrCBTman]

I have this book. It’s definitely worth getting if you have ADHD.

[@CL-cn2sc]

Thank you so much for this book. I bought it because my doctor recommended it. Haven’t read it yet because of my ADHD but I will start reading it today 😂

Ritalin helps you to read

[@chaozfreak]

Will there be an audiobook version released soon?

[@sherir3668]

This is sooo important. It is the only way info goes i to my brain. All books about ADHD should be in audio form otherwise they miss the essential audience that would benefit from them. Please, we would love it!!

[@aidan1125]

I'm for the audiobook as well. I enjoy learning but reading is not one of my strengths.

[@GuilfordPress]

There is an audiobook of this title available on Audible! www.audible.com/pd/Taking-Charge-of-Adult-ADHD-Second-Edition-Audiobook/B09W83QYMN

I am so frustrated when I hear we must stop and then go back to the task without losing our place! I can NOT do that! I have to continuously maintain high concentration to perform well enough. I wish Dr. Barkley could realize this.

[@hanskraut2018]

A book that summarizes the "lecture for parents" and the "burnet lectures" would easily become the best selling and useful book. And there should be an insane focus on tiltration medicaiton selection and EXACTLY how to dose and find the right medication mix. Since you cant rely on psychiatrists having time nowadays. No young people go into the field the practitioners get older and older and i guess thats because people dont take adhd seriously, the ones that do dont understand it and money dryes out from the government because people think adhd is creativity, engery, happyness distractability, concentration, planing and not enought to do list therapy, love from parents and coaching. Also social media. R.I.P Have a nice retirenment you earned it sir, tho u are needed more then ever. I hopped you stay active for ever since work is the spice of life and keeps the mind clear and the the soul young as they say.

Jordan Peterson the snake oil salesman got better book sales

[@petitluna2571]

Man, I wish I could buy it but it's not available in my country. Got my diagnosis now, at 18. It's the beginning of my adult life and I feel like it'd help me so so much

[@jed88]

Amazon not deliver to you?

[@hatcheck100]

I’d like to know what you think about Primitive Reflexes and their effect on ADHD.

[@dragon6414]

Great insights. Just ordered your book.

[@GuilfordPress]

Wonderful, thank you!

[@artandhorses]

Hmm, I might have ADD and/or SCT. Time blindness has always been a problem but performance decreased with time.

[@LethalKicks]

Russel Barkley is a genius but I expected a focus on medication treatment. He seems to have broken down to the pressure and now is pro therapy and almost ignores medication (definitly not interessted in precise tiltration. Then they are useless like eye glasses that worsen rather than improve eyesigt. Some guy told Mr Barkley he had lots of impact. That guy had no idea what he was talking about. Now the only Researcher that has a idea what adhd relly is is gone. I think the adhd research space is in for dark times. I would not be surprised if it degenerates to pre 1980 views of adhd. Most people seem to be immune to real application of the scientific method and go instead by intuition and then try to prove what they aleardy believe just simply using the fact that there is much material on adhd to ignore what goes against there hypothesis and using anything that supports it. A sad day. But eventho Mr Barkley uncovered lots about adhd the treatment was still terrible since noone had time to fineadjust medications or even know what to adjust to. Simply using rating scales seemed not possible since clinitioins have no time, outdated views, gutinstincts and definitly no idea or desire to relly take the time they dont have and the money they dont get to properly treat people. Thats why most people stop adhd medication in a year and continue to propogate "big pharma" conspiracys because the medicaitons obvioulsy dont work if you just use it liberaly without effort and finetuning. Sadly now that mr Barkley that had a brother with adhd and therefore be a better scientist next to his dilligence is gone from the field dark days will come. And in fact the field stagnates even now. Money is wasted on diet, therapy and other paths that go noowhere in a extremly accelerated way, while mr Barkleys work and espeically pharmacotherapy dies on the runway after having provided the best and only revolutionary results it has. That goes to show that trump mindset, instinct and opportunism is the limit of scientific advancement. We came far. I hope they take depression more seriously because people kill themselfs so at least when ur life sucks u can maybe not be depressed until you die with untreated adhd and a terrible live without drive and happyness while everyone thinks you have too much distracting happynes and energy.

You need to talk to someone

[@takiyaazrin7562]

Dude go to Google Scholar. There are new research every week

[@MichaelGarbarino-t4w]

I have such compassion for your comment, my best recommendation is please consider what I have done for myself - get yourself into therapy. Dr. Barkley is a gift to our community, doesn’t mean he’s the sole source of research or work in this area - lots and lots of research is being done and ongoing. I welcome pharmaceutical help, but I recognize the pills alone are not going to “fix” me, they are a vital tool but not the only one - I’ve learned I must use every tool at my disposal and hold onto hope, wishing you the best ❤️‍🩹

[@andrewjones8484]

Keto or carnivore diet will clear up adhd symptoms

[@takiyaazrin7562]

Which research paper said that?????

[@beck1rakhimov]

Not for the month of us

[@MichaelGarbarino-t4w]

Absolutely NOT true. A healthy diet is key to good health, but absolutely not a panacea to anything. While I don’t mean disrespect, this comment is an example of the misinformation that is everywhere out there. Is it your intention to spread ignorance? Seriously, we don’t need kindergarten thinking in response to Dr. Barkley’s nuanced, sophisticated approach to ADHD, kindly keep your one size fits all solution to yourself, it helps absolutely no one.
