Some great articles...thanks....love the one entitled, "ADD in the Workplace...Coping with Impulsivity on the Job". And one called "Add-friendly ways to organize your life" is good too. And "Women's Way of Knowing"....very good....thanks...

The ADDvance Monthly news letter for members is great too.

Do you have to be a member to be able to read the articles? I went to the site and didn't see where they were...

Hi,
I am new to this site. I am new to all of this. I'm not sure I am doing this correctly and where I will look to see if this went anywhere. Short on computer knowledge. I wanted to know wher I could find the article joanrdtobe mentioned "ADD-friendly ways to organize your life".
Thank you

Ashley

I have recently read a terrific book by Patricia Quinn M.D. It is called Understanding Girls with ADHD. I was able to get so much information from this book when it was recommended to me right after my daughter was dx.

Are there any other books that people have read that have really made a difference to them??

Please share about that book & why it made such an impact on you

Women With A.D.D. by Sari ??? was a HUGE help (and relief) for me after my DX.
