Some of my favorite resources…
Tons of webinars and articles here. They also have a great podcast.
Book or also on Audible:
Parenting ADHD Now by Elaine Taylor Klaus
ADHD 2.0 by Ned Hallowell
The Explosive Child by Dr. Ross Greene
Taking Charge of ADHD by Russell Barkley
These authors are all featured on Additude Magazines website as well. It’s a journey but you are not alone.
Hi, I'm not the best example of success, but if I can give one piece of advice from experience alone, it is that when it comes to ADHD something even better than medication is to have someone to talk to who not only understands you but supports you. I didn't have that with my parents, and I feel it would have made a huge difference in my life. I'm sure things will get better for you.
