Descripción
But what if impulsiveness, distractibility, impatience, and the other ADHD symptoms we’re dead-set on overcoming are actually disguised talents like curiosity, adventurousness, and resilience? Might that explain why ADHD-diagnosed people...
mostra másThat is the contention of Dr. Dale Archer in THE ADHD ADVANTAGE. Dr. Archer, a board-certified psychiatrist, is the New York Times-bestselling author of Better Than Normal: How What Makes You Different Can Make You Exceptional and a popular source of expert psychological advice on major national news programs. Dr. Archer’s unique expertise on this topic is also rooted in the fact that he personally has lived (and flourished) with ADHD over the course of his life and career without relying on drugs.
THE ADHD ADVANTAGE goes far beyond previous challenges to conventional ADHD wisdom, shifting the paradigm of how parents, students, athletes, and professionals should view this pervasive set of human behaviors. Rather than a disorder that we need to medicate away, ADHD is better thought of as a diagnosis of boredom.
In THE ADHD ADVANTAGE, Dr. Archer describes:
•What parents need to know about ADHD before starting their child on a medication program that may end up doing more harm than good.
•The reasons ADHD traits are hidden assets in virtually any business setting, and how professionals can tap into their potential.
•Why the conventional wisdom that multitasking is always bad needs to be reconsidered.
•The groundbreaking Massachusetts school that refuses to regard ADHD as a learning disability – and the astonishing results their students achieve.
•A step-by-step method for refocusing ADHD “Bingo Brain”, where ideas bounce around at random like balls in a bingo caller’s drum, into a deep source of creative (and profitable) ideas.
•How to turn ADHD’s impulsiveness into expertise at taking “smart risks” that lead to creative breakthroughs.
•Why the “Explorer Gene” likely shared by Da Vinci, Meriwether Lewis, Benjamin Franklin, and other world-changers now leads to ADHD diagnoses (where it can be stifled by drugs).
•Relatable case studies of celebrities and regular people who found success not be suppressing their ADHD traits, but embracing and redirecting them.
By delving into the genetics behind the traits that lead to pessimistic ADHD diagnoses, and the proven and potential dangers of quick-fix medication programs, the book makes clear to ADHDers and their loved ones that a new approach is long overdue.
