Summary of Phil Boissiere, MFT's Thriving with Adult ADHD
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The prefrontal cortex, which is the part of the brain behind our forehead and eyes, is responsible for executive functions. It is the largest part of the human brain and sets us apart from other mammals. It is also the part of the brain that develops slowly until we are about 25 years old.
#2 ADHD can be very frustrating for people, and it can affect their careers, relationships, and parenting. However, it can be managed. The first step in managing your symptoms is to determine what your individual strengths and weaknesses are.
#3 The assessment is not a clinical diagnostic tool, but it is a quick way to gain insight into how you are doing in each of the core areas of cognitive skills. If you score below 10 on any area, it is not a very important area on which to focus your efforts. However, if you answered any individual questions in any area with a 2, it may be important to address those subareas.
#4 I am easily distracted when activities are happening around me. I struggle to finish work or school tasks, and my attention wanders easily when I am working or studying. I get distracted and lose focus when I hear noises or see things in my environment.
