About this listen

'A sledgehammer of a book putting to bed all the cynicism and misinformation around a condition that affects so many hidden, brilliant people' Professor Tanya Byron

'Laugh out loud funny and deeply validating - every person who thinks ADHD isn't real should read this book' Leanne Maskell, author of ADHD: An A to Z

Nobody should spend their life feeling defective. Everyone deserves to have a user manual to their brain - welcome to yours.

Once associated more with hyper boys than adults, ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) is now recognised as a condition in need of a rebrand which affects people of all genders and ages in a multitude of ways.

In this enlightening and definitive layman's guide, Kat Brown cheerfully smashes the stereotypes with scientific evidence, historical context, and practical support for ADHD minds across areas that can cause problems, from finances and work to self-medicating, relationships, hormones and self-esteem.

Based on Kat's personal experience and extensive interviews with ADHDers and world-leading clinical experts, It's Not A Bloody Trend is for anyone wondering if what's always been 'wrong' with them might just be undiagnosed ADHD.©2024 Kat Brown (P)2024 Hachette Audio UK

Critic reviews

Deeply researched, digestible and relatable. This is a book which not only assists and validates those starting their diagnosis journey, or already on its path, but also gives insight and experiential examples for those loved ones surrounding us to learn and understand with us. Brown speaks vulnerably of her own story whilst revealing a unique angle: a compilation of real life examples from different people interlacing her own experiences in an approachable and nurturing tone. ADHD manifests in many different ways and whilst a multiple choice box helps with initial diagnosis, this book shows a deep dive into the diversity of our real life experiences and how they are all illustrations of the obstacles we deal with daily. As the title suggests, there are some preconceptions about ADHD, and I myself have been fearful of talking about my diagnosis in public too much in fear of accusations of jumping on the band wagon. Brown writes that "rather than something being fashionable, it's usually social change that has led to it being more clearly seen" which sums this up perfectly (Emma Young, author of 'The Cheese Wheel')

Informative and engaging book on adult ADHD from a British professional who knows the field of ADHD so very well.

The audiobook reader does an excellent job, even though this is not read aloud by the author. The content here is so useful that I played the audiobook straight through. Diagnosed as having adult ADHD, author Kat Brown is a unique and qualified expert in the field. Her clever writing style and personal story compelled me to get the kindle version, too. I hope Kat will read her future books for Audible because I loved hearing her talk on the ADHD Chatter Podcast on YouTube yesterday, which brought me here!
