description: 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. Drawing on the latest research findings the book describes strategies and treatments for getting unstuck to move on to a more rewarding and productive life.
