About this listen
Compelling stories that present a new view of ADHD.
Smart but Stuck offers 15 true and compelling stories about intelligent, capable teens and adults who have gotten "stuck" at school, work, and/or in social relationships because of their ADHD. Dr. Brown highlights the often unrecognized role that emotions play in this complex disorder. He explains why even very bright people with ADHD get stuck because they can focus well on some tasks that interest them but often can't focus adequately on other important tasks and relationships.
- The first book to explain and illustrate the crucial role of emotions in the daily functioning of those living with ADHD
- Brown, associate director of the Yale Clinic for Attention & Related Disorders, is an internationally known authority on ADHD
Drawing on the latest research findings, the audiobook describes strategies and treatments for getting "unstuck" to move on to a more rewarding and productive life.

Every year, millions of withdrawn little girls and chronically overwhelmed women go undiagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder because they don't fit the stereotypical profile: they're not fast-talking, hyperactive, or inattentive, and they are not male. Sari Solden's groundbreaking study reveals that ADHD affects just as many women as men, and that the resulting depression, disorganization, anxiety, and underachievement are also symptoms of ADHD. Newly revised and updated to reflect the latest clinical research, the book explores treatment and counseling options and more.

Understanding Girls with ADHD does not shy away from key areas of controversy. How, for example, can a family know whether it's ADHD or another set of problems that's the primary issue? How does one deal with the potential use of medication, which is plagued by bad press and abundant myths but which can, as part of a multi-faceted treatment plan, provide great benefit if the right dose is found and if the doctor works with the family to monitor positive effects and side effects carefully?

Understanding Girls with ADHD does not shy away from key areas of controversy. How, for example, can a family know whether it's ADHD or another set of problems that's the primary issue? How does one deal with the potential use of medication, which is plagued by bad press and abundant myths but which can, as part of a multi-faceted treatment plan, provide great benefit if the right dose is found and if the doctor works with the family to monitor positive effects and side effects carefully?

That’s it. Otherwise it was a very useful and illuminating listen!!!
Wonderful info, but a little robotic
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
If I read this again, it will be the physical copy, as the narrator has a soothing but sing-song cadence that doesn't vary much, and eventually drove me nuts. It's also a huge pet peeve when the emphasis is clearly on the wrong word in a sentence, which forces me to rewind frequently to understand what the author was actually trying to say. I mean, I'm already taking meds because it's hard enough to pay attention to everything else in life, amirite?
Overall though, worth buying twice.
Great for those who do - and do not - have ADHD

This publication requires an editor who listens to the output. I’m curious enough to continue for now but I don’t have the patience (or emotional regulation, this author might say) to stick with this if those issues persist.
“Only on Audible” books have the worst editing!
