Summary
If you are a woman with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), you've probably known - all your life - that you're different. As girls, we learn which behaviors, thinking, learning, and working styles are preferred, which are accepted and tolerated, and which are frowned upon. These preferences are communicated in innumerable ways-from media and books to our first-grade classroom to conversations with our classmates and parents.
Over the course of a lifetime, women with ADHD learn through various channels that the way they think, work, speak, relate, and act does not match up with the preferred way of being in the world. In short, they learn that difference is bad. And, since these women know that they are different, they learn that they are bad. It's time for a change.
A Radical Guide for Women with ADHD is the first guided workbook for women with ADHD designed to break the cycle of negative self-talk and shame-based narratives that stem from the common and limiting belief that brain differences are character flaws. In this unique guide, you'll find a groundbreaking approach that blends traditional ADHD treatment with contemporary treatment methods, such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), to help you untangle yourself from the beliefs that have kept you from reaching your potential in life.

I might be missing the point.
I might be missing the point from a cultural perspective. This feels very American with an attitude that everyone needs a cheerleader, giving standing ovations and shouting great job at the smallest achievement. I find it a little bit patronising. If someone is looking for reassuring pats on the head and a there, there, you can do it sort of thing, then this book would do the trick. I am a very independent woman looking for something other than this. No disrespect to the amount of work that has clearly gone into this book, but the tone of it doesn't quite work for me. Maybe great for someone setting out on this journey earlier in life. I am in my 40's. Thank you for the book though, it is great to see more books about this out there.

Great book about being woman with ADHD and how to help yourself.
I found it very helpful. Authors see the ADHD as just a part of our personality.

Irritating beyond belief
Oh my goodness, I’m thrilled to discover the reason why I am how I am! I thought it was just me! I just want some help and advice on how to make the most it and overcome the difficulties that I have because of ADHD. This book is going on as if I’m grief stricken! It’s a relief to find out! But the book just keeps going on and on and on about how we have to learn to shine even though our lives have been terrible (apparently) thus far. I’m about an hour in and I still haven’t learned anything helpful, I’m still being justified and sympathised with! I keep thinking ‘GET ON WITH IT!!!’ Giving up now.

Very boring. Did not finish
This was recommended to me by my psychiatrist once I got my diagnosis. I haven’t found it useful & just keep hearing the author using negative self talk examples.
Not very helpful & not relatable.
