Providing a new perspective on ADHD in adults, this compelling book analyzes findings from two major studies directed by leading authority Russell A. Barkley. Groundbreaking information is presented on the significant impairments produced by the disorder across major functional domains and life activities, including educational outcomes, work, relationships, health behaviors, and mental health. Thoughtfully considering the treatment implications of these findings, the book also demonstrates that existing diagnostic criteria do not accurately reflect the way ADHD is experienced by adults, and points the way toward developing better criteria that center on executive function deficits. Accessible tables, figures, and sidebars encapsulate the study results and methods.

"In a discussion of ADHD treatments, Wender and Tomb stress that drug therapy remains the most effective in treating the disorder. They add, however, that psychological techniques, when combined with medication, can produce further improvement. Wender and Tomb offer practical, comprehensive instructions on how parents of an ADHD sufferer can best help their child. Now a classic work, ADHD grants parents and adults whose lives have been touched by this disorder an indispensable source of help, hope, and understanding"--

Worldwide longitudinal studies performed since the 1970s have clearly shown that ADHD persists into adulthood. These findings have stimulated researchers to develop the therapeutic approaches for adult patients, especially in European countries where scientific and clinical interest in ADHD has increased. In this volume, leading experts from Europe and the United States present their long-term results in order to provide an overview of important aspects of ADHD across the lifespan. These results include epidemiology, neurobiology, psychopathology, longitudinal course, comorbidity and social impairment associated with ADHD. Topics include diagnostic problems and therapeutic options as well as molecular genetic studies. Further, morphological and functional imaging studies in adult ADHD are reviewed, as well as the very important issue of comorbidity.

Although the phenomenon of ADHD (Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is well described in children, it is now thought that in up to 60% of cases the symptoms persist into adulthood. This volume reviews our growing knowledge of adult ADHD and presents a transatlantic perspective on the identification, assessment and treatment of the disorder. The introductory section covers the history of ADHD, as well as the epidemiology, consequences, gender differences and legal aspects. Detailed descriptions of the clinical features of ADHD in adults are then given to enhance the reader's clinical recognition and assessment. Subsequent sections cover treatment strategies, emphasising pharmacological, psychological and social interventions. Written and edited by experts internationally renowned for their work in ADHD, this is an essential resource for all mental health workers who encounter adults presenting with neurodevelopmental disorders.

How does ADHD manifest itself in adult life? In general, the authors write, hyperactivity tends to diminish with age, impulsivity changes quality, and attention problems remain the same although they may become more disabling as organizational demands increase. The authors carefully answer the questions often posed by professionals and patients about these symptoms and other issues. They describe the diagnostic interview and the use of rating scales and include examples of the scales. They also provide a well-balanced review of associated psychiatric conditions, such as mood and anxiety disorders, Tourette's syndrome, oppositional and conduct problems, and substance abuse. Descriptions of all the primary approaches to treatment—medication, psychological therapies, and environmental restructuring—include vivid case examples.

One out of every 10 adult psychotherapy clients likely has ADHD. Due to high comorbidities with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and other mental disorders, along with considerable behavioral dysfunction, adult ADHD is even more common in clinical populations than the general public. When an ADHD diagnosis is missed, psychotherapy is often frustrating and less effective. Could it be Adult ADHD? is for mental health professionals who wish to learn how to recognize, assess, and treat adult ADHD. Written in a style maximally accessible to the practicing mental health professional, this book educates early-career psychotherapists and experienced professionals alike on the disorder and its treatment. Author Jan Willer provides a full description of adult ADHD symptoms, based on the most current research, including executive functioning problems, emotional dysregulation, atypical reward sensitivity, and problems with time perception. Recognizing patterns of dysfunction is essential to identify ADHD, so two detailed composite cases are presented, along with supplemental case material. Strengths that may be associated with ADHD are described. Willer offers guidance on providing psychoeducation about cognitive differences in ADHD, which is essential for client self-acceptance and adaptive functioning. Common psychotherapy problems with ADHD clients are addressed, including chronic lateness to sessions, missed appointments, motivation problems, difficulties with homework, and tangentiality. Willer also discusses medications for ADHD, including their benefits, contraindications, and side effects, and reviews the effectiveness of non-traditional treatments.

Winner of four national book awards! Praised by a "Who's Who" of preeminent experts! This bestselling guide put Adult ADHD and Relationships on the map — and remains a must-read today. Adults with ADHD, their partners and other loved ones, and professionals will find comprehensive understanding of symptoms, emotional impact, and evidence-based treatment strategies. "I recommend it highly to all couples whose troubles seem incomprehensible, and for all couples therapists it should be required reading to help them distinguish between ordinary conflict and the roller coaster effect of this syndrome." —Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. "Insightful, helpful, witty, and very practical. This book can change your life." —Daniel Amen, MD "There is no better book that addresses such relationship difficulties and with such sensitivity to the complex issues inherent in them. Thank you, Gina, for writing such a useful book." —Russell A. Barkley, PhD "Gina Pera has written a stunning book that should be a must-read for all couples where one or both partners have Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder." —Anthony Rostain, MD About this Groundbreaking Book: Is It You, Me, or Adult ADHD? has helped thousands of readers understand how this highly variable syndrome affects them. Around the globe, professionals and couples who have elevated their lives with the book's wisdom recommend it to others. Gina Pera expertly guides you in making sense of your own Adult ADHD Roller Coaster—helping you to: · View ADHD as a variable syndrome affecting individuals · Realize how later-in-life diagnosis creates additional issues · Revise old misinterpretations that can thwart progress now · Heal poor coping responses and dysfunctional interaction cycles · Implement supports to completing routine tasks and reaching goals · Appreciate how ADHD can also negatively affect the spouses and other loved ones · Delve into "denial's" dual nature — physiological and psychological — and reach through it · Adopt proven approaches that remain extremely rare in clinical settings, especially couple therapy The science has been clear since 1994, when Adult ADHD was declared a medical diagnosis. Still, the public harbors misconceptions, and that means millions suffer needlessly. That includes millions of couples who can't understand why their lives together are so hard—often despite many attempts at therapy. The simple truth is: Everyone knows someone with adult ADHD. Yet we often misattribute the symptoms to anxiety, depression, or even laziness, selfishness, “addictive personality,” or moodiness. Some assume that ADHD means little boys with ants in their pants. In fact, childhood hyperactivity goes "underground" as the person matures, resulting in a mentally restless state. Meticulously researched and written by Gina Pera, Is It You, Me, or Adult ADHD? helps you recognize the behaviors where you least expect them with: · Explanations from highly respected experts · Plenty of real-life details · Empathy and compassion for everyone affected by Adult ADHD · Clear advice on proven treatment options and practical solutions. The revolutionary message is one of hope for millions of people—and a joyous opportunity for a better life. About the Author Gina Pera is an internationally respected author, speaker, and educator on Adult ADHD, especially as it affects relationships. For 22 years, she has researched and written about Adult ADHD while also passionately advocating for better treatment standards. She wrote two highly praised books and the first-ever chapter on couple-therapy in the leading ADHD clinical guide (edited by Russell Barkley, PhD). Since 2008, she's reported major original stories at her award-winning blog (the first and longest-running website on Adult ADHD): ADHDRollerCoaster.org Her first book, Is It You, Me, or Adult A.D.D.?, broke new ground and won four book awards. It has been translated into Turkish and Spanish. Her second book (with psychologist Arthur Robin) is Adult ADHD-Focused Couple Therapy: Clinical Interventions. It presents the first therapeutic model for helping these couples. It is a flexible approach based on strategies that research has proven to work for Adult ADHD and for couple therapy. Known as an innovative researcher and engaging speaker, Gina has long provided education and support for the ADHD community. She has led workshops internationally and facilitates Adult ADHD discussion groups in Silicon Valley as well as an international online group for the partners of adults with ADHD. Previously, Gina was an award-winning newspaper and magazine journalist. She has recently launched an online training site for consumers and professionals: ADHDSuccessTraining.com Her blog: ADHDRollerCoaster.org From the Author, Gina Pera: ADHD is a highly variable syndrome that affects individuals, not clones. Your experience of ADHD might look little like: · Your friend's ADHD · Your parent's ADHD · That blogger's or podcaster's ADHD · Any stereotypes about ADHD I wrote this book to help everyone affected by Adult ADHD — the adults themselves, their partners and other loved ones, and professionals — learn to recognize ADHD-related challenges. When you know what you are dealing with, you have a better chance of creating positive change. When couples learn about ADHD and work as a team to address misinterpretations and dysfunctional interaction cycles, life typically improve dramatically. Even when relationships do not continue, healing takes place. Lessons are learned about digging deep into the human capacity for strength, love, and compassion —and learning new ideas. I sincerely wish that you find this guide helpful, even life-changing, and that it might inspire you to share your knowledge with others. Thank you for reading. Professional Endorsements/Reviews “Most books on marriage offer insights and help to common marital problems such as the traditional problems of conflict around sex, money, children, time, and in-laws. They offer credible solutions such as conflict management, improved communication, and problem solving skills. “This book is different. For some couples these problems are exacerbated by the often-unnoticed presence of a particular neural wiring in the brain, called Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, that makes traditional solutions very ineffective. This book describes AD/HD in detail and with empathy and helps couples with this added challenge find hope and solutions. “I recommend it highly to all couples whose troubles seem incomprehensible and for all couples therapists it should be required reading to help them distinguish between ordinary conflict and the roller coaster’ effect of this syndrome.” —Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. renowned couples therapy expert and author of Getting the Love You Want: A Guide for Couples "In this lucid, provocative, and authoritative book, Gina Pera lets the reader know, at a visceral level, what it's like to be the partner of an adult with AD/HD. Alternately humorous and deadly serious, the book is deeply empathic with the experience of such partners. Along the way, Pera provides important information about AD/HD's causes and treatments and provides empowerment to those who have for too long been blamed for the relationship issues engendered by AD/HD. “By showing the reality of AD/HD in relation to those who must live with its consequences every day, she provides a message of real hope." —Stephen Hinshaw, Ph.D. Professor and Chair of the Psychology Department at the University of California, Berkeley "Wow! What a roller coaster ride...Is It You, Me or Adult ADD? contains information that is just not available anywhere else. This book is sure to become the authoritative guide for couples dealing with ADD and the baggage that accompanies it. Packed with information, but not overwhelming, it is a unique and valuable resource." —Patricia O. Quinn, M.D. Cofounder and Director, The National Center for Girls and Women with AD/HD “Insightful, helpful, witty, and very practical. This book can change your life.” —Daniel G. Amen, M.D. author Change Your Brain, Change Your Life “Having a spouse or partner with ADHD and its attendant conditions often means dealing with painful, disastrous, and heartbreaking issues-—financial catastrophes, verbal and even physical abuse, substance addiction. and many others. The spouse feels overwhelmed and desperate while struggling in a swirl of chaos. But help is often nowhere to be found. Most books on ADHD completely ignore the more serious issues brought on families, and even health care providers sometimes have no understanding of it. Many group members have been in relationships for 20 to 30 years, never knowing why their lives are so different from other couples, loving their partners, but living lives of frustration and emotional abandonment. As co-moderators for nearly 10 years of an online support group, we've seen our members grapple with these painful issues, with nowhere else to turn for advice, help, and hope except each other. We've seen this book emerge from a plea from group members for a resource that addresses their needs. Gina Pera has completed a monumental undertaking of blending our stories with the latest medical advisories on treating ADHD and its many co-existing conditions. Real answers on the painful realities. We expect this book will be the bible for all of us dealing with adult ADHD. —Elizabeth Weathers and Diane Hartson Co-moderators. ADD Spouse support group "My first response to the publication of Gina's book was 'At last! Something for the significant other!' You hate to use the cliche 'long overdue' but as a physician who treats dozens of ADHD patients, until now, there's just been nothing available. Is it You, Me, or Adult ADHD lives up to all expectations. I can safely predict it will become as an 'industry standard'. As father to a son and husband to a wife with ADHD, I can professionally and personally attest to the value of Gina's important new book." —David Edelberg, M.D. Medical Director, WholeHealth Chicago “For all the couples who are struggling with ADHD in their relationship, Gina Pera has written a wonderful guide to help you navigate these treacherous marital waters. Is it You, Me, or Adult ADD? has the unique distinction of including the perspective of the partner without ADHD, which has been neglected for far too many years. The book is well researched, reader friendly, and includes insights and perspectives from a Who's Who of professionals in the field. For couples struggling with ADHD, it's the season's new must-have book and bound to become a classic.” —Michele Novotni, Ph.D. author of What Does Everyone Else Know that I Don't? “Even today, people often surprisingly ask: “Do you believe in Adult ADHD?” Confirmatory brain neuroscience answers this speculation about Adult ADHD: It’s real problem, with real and painful challenges, not a belief system. And nowhere is Adult ADHD more evident, more fully identifiable, than in our most important, valued relationships. In any long-term relationship, with increasing exposure over time, ADHD patterns endure unabated. They grind partners into a thin paste. “The reason it took so long to recognize Adult ADD is simple: Its expression is cunning and well rationalized. With Gina Pera’s help, the subtlety of recognizing and the complexity of intervening on these puzzling ADHD predicaments is refreshingly simplified. “Gina translates big questions into useful, practical, and understandable answers. Her book provides not only a good starting place for the ADHD discussion, but also detailed follow-through for the real recovery process.” — Charles Parker, DO Medical Director, CorePsych “While there is increasing awareness of how common and difficult ADHD can be, there are no resources available to help explain the nature of ADHD to those who live closest to it in adulthood: the spouse. “Gina Pera has combined a real feel for the disorder with sound reporting skills and the spice of those who tell the story best: the couples themselves. This is a book based on science, but it captures the art of helping couples cope with and move beyond the challenges that ADHD creates.” —Margaret D. Weiss, M.D., Ph.D. Director of Clinical Research in Child Psychiatry at Cambridge Health Alliance, Cambridge MA. “Gina Pera has written a stunning book that should be a must-read for all couples where one or both partners have ADHD. Combining her own experiences, a thoughtful synthesis of the clinical and research literature, and a creative study of her own design, she has grasped the complex ways in which ADHD affects relationships and has translated her comprehensive expertise into a highly readable and extraordinarily helpful guide. “Using the metaphor of riding a roller coaster, she describes the ups and downs of intimate relationships in frank and open ways, including rich descriptions of all-too-common scenarios that inevitably stymie couples, and offers solutions that are both imaginative and practical. Her prose is extremely effective, at times funny and at other times poignant, and her ability to capture the subtle dynamics of partnerships affected by ADHD is nothing short of extraordinary. “What is particularly stunning about her achievement is the way Ms. Pera has captured the intricacy of ADHD, including its far-reaching effects on executive function and emotional regulation. Equally impressive is her talent for framing the issues in comprehensible language, with answers to frequently asked questions, quotes from partners with and without ADHD, and snippets of dialogues that are completely genuine. “Best of all, this book offers hope and guidance to the millions of adults whose lives have been challenged by ADHD, by providing clear and useful ideas and a richly elaborated framework for addressing the myriad stresses that ADHD imposes upon intimacy and friendship. “Kudos and thanks to Ms. Pera! I will make this book required reading for all my patients. It is nothing short of a tour de force!” —Anthony L. Rostain, M.D., MA Medical Director, University of Pennsylvania Adult ADHD Treatment and Research Program. Professor of Psychiatry and Pediatrics, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine “As any partner of an adult with ADHD can attest, research clearly shows ADHD's pervasive effects on a person's ability to manage life's many demands. This often leaves the partner to pick up the pieces, despite the ADHD person's seemingly good intentions. “When an adult has ADHD, his or her romantic partner ‘has’ it, too. Alternately confused, optimistic, and resentful, the partner rides a roller coaster as he or she tries to understand why the relationship seems so unbalanced. Gina Pera has been there and has authored a guide that offers understanding for the confused, practical strategies for the frustrated, and hope for the despondent. “This book will be a lifesaver for both partners as they strive to create a more satisfying relationship and a happier, more productive life together.” —Ari Tuckman, Psy.D., M.B.A. From the Back Cover Is Someone You Love... · Forgetful? Disorganized? Distractible? Procrastination prone? · Easily bored? Irritable? A couch potato or always on the go? · Suffering from sleep problems? · Prone to "mis-hearing" or "mis-remembering"? · Addicted to shopping, tobacco, videogames, work--or worse? Learn Why... · Most adults with ADD aren't physically hyperactive. · Many can focus—when their interest level is high. · Many therapists and physicians fail to recognize the signs of ADHD—or know how to provide evidence-based treatment. · Symptoms can sabotage your finances, intimacy, and even your health. · Externally supporting Executive Functions can help people with ADHD " show what they know" · ADHD awareness can save your relationship—and maybe even your life! "For all couples therapists it should be required reading to help them distinguish between ordinary conflict and the 'roller coaster' effect of this syndrome." —Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. author of Getting the Love You Want "Insightful, helpful, witty, and very practical. This book can change your life." —Daniel G. Amen, M.D. author of Healing ADD. Until now, however, no books existed that combined both a scientific understanding of adult ADHD with pragmatic recommendations to guide these adults and their partners in coping, problem-solving, and otherwise addressing the difficulties they face in sharing a life and a home. Gina Pera's book does so with an admirable balance of current scientific information mixed with sage advice and wise, practical strategies based on the current science. There is no better book now that addresses such relationship difficulties and with such sensitivity to the complex issues inherent in them. Thank you, Gina, for writing such a useful book. —Russell A.

Foreword from a preeminent international ADHD expert: Only within the last 15 years has adult ADHD been recognized as a valid clinical disorder. Yet at least 40 years ago—and possibly a century—the scientific and clinical literature acknowledged its existence. Today, we know ADHD to be more impairing than most other conditions seen in outpatient psychiatric and psychological clinics—including anxiety disorders, dysthymia, and major depression. In short, the scientific evidence is overwhelming for this adult version of a disorder long associated with childhood. "In particular, current research details how ADHD can adversely affect all major life activities, including marriage or cohabiting relationships and the skills intimately involved in maintaining a household and raising a family—including driving an automobile, working a job, managing money, taking care of one’s health, and parenting. "Until now, however, no books existed that combined both a scientific understanding of adult ADHD with pragmatic recommendations to guide these adults and their partners in coping, problem-solving, and otherwise addressing the difficulties they face in sharing a life and a home. "Gina Pera’s book does so with an admirable balance of current scientific information mixed with sage advice and wise, practical strategies based on the current science. There is no better book that addresses such relationship difficulties and with such sensitivity to the complex issues inherent in them. "Thank you, Gina, for writing such a useful book." —Russell Barkley, Ph.D., author of ADHD in Adults: What the Science Says and Taking Charge of Adult ADHD

Most clinicians rely on only an interview to diagnose ADHD in adults. With the recent media "overkill" about ADHD, more and more patients have already read numerous articles and books about the topic making it even harder for practitioners to differentiate between symptoms due to ADHD and symptoms of a hypersensitive patient. As a result, the clinician should no longer rely on just an interview but a more sphoisticated and reliable method. Attention Deficit: A Practitioner's Handbook offers practical guidance to diagnose ADHD with special consideration to comorbid and differential diagnoses. This volume also challenges practitioners to move beyond current diagnostic criteria and presents arguments for standardized testing in addition to the traditional interview. Insightful commentaries on major points of current controversy in this area of study are also highlighted. Dr. Triolo, author of the Attention Deficit Scales for Adults (ADSA), also discusses theoretical perspectives of ADHD and bridges the gap between the research and clinical practice. A most practical volume that clinicians will appreciate in their library.
