description: Are you an adult, or a person who spends a considerable proportion of their time pretending that they are? Do you suspect that you have ADHD, but don't know what to do about it? Do you already have a diagnosis, and no clue as to where to go from here? If that's the case, this book is for you! Researched, written, and edited by neurodivergents for neurodivergents, it will hopefully answer some of the questions you have, and even some you haven't thought of asking yet."An impassioned look at the realities of seeking an ADHD diagnosis as a late-identified adult. This book is written by an ADHD-er for ADHD-ers and contains so much validating and important information for those just coming to terms to finding out their identity. It is an excellent starting point with which to learn about the world of the neurodivergent community - the author's wit and passion make it an enjoyable read despite the frustrations of having to navigate systems and processes that put roadblocks up throughout the whole diagnostic process. It would be fantastic if those 'in charge' of those processes could read this book to gain insight into the real-world impact of their gatekeeping."Gillian Kearns - Co-founder of NeuroPride Ireland
