What to expect
Women are being diagnosed with ADHD at unprecedented rates. Historically overlooked, ADHD in girls often presents less conspicuously than in boys, leading to late diagnoses. With growing awareness, more women are seeking help. Yet, waiting lists are soaring, and there is a pressing need for female-specific guidance that considers how hormonal changes throughout life—puberty, pregnancy, and menopause—impact ADHD symptoms.
Enter specialists Professor Sandra Kooij and family therapist Jacqueline van de Sande, who bring decades of experience and ground-breaking research to this brilliantly practical and refreshingly relatable guide for women with ADHD and ADD. Drawing on their extensive expertise, they offer an engaging, conversational resource filled with tips for every stage of life—from navigating studies and work to managing relationships and key transitions like the menopause and perimenopause.
It doesn’t matter whether you have an official diagnosis or simply recognize yourself in the symptoms. This book is filled with tips and tricks to help you get through the day with a little less chaos, no matter what stage of life you’re in.
Presented in an ADHD-friendly format, Mastering ADHD for Women combines the latest scientific insights with true stories - sometimes hilarious, sometimes moving - to explore common challenges, offering succinct, actionable advice for harnessing your unique talents and living life well.
