  Excerpt from Andrew's Awesome Adventures with His ADHD Brain - My ADHD Brain Is a Master of Disaster.   My mom is on a constant mission to tame my tornadic ADHD brain. “Andrew, how can you possibly work at your desk with papers piled everywhere, Legos strewn about, and a stack of empty plates and cups?”   I look up from the computer, survey the desk, and shrug my shoulders. “It’s not so bad.” I shove a pile of papers to the side. They teeter on the edge of the desk, fall to the floor, and scatter in every direction covering my carpet in a snow-white blanket. Oh, there’s the instructions for my science project! I haven’t started it yet, and it’s due the day after tomorrow. I pick the page of instructions up off the floor and put it on top of another pile of papers on my desk. I misplace important papers for school all the time. I turn back to the computer and start playing my game again. “Mom, why do I have to bother with cleaning off my desk? It’s going to stay organized for all

  from the author -  My son was diagnosed with the inattentive subtype of ADHD when he was eight years old. At the time, I didn’t realize how fortunate we were to have his teachers recognize his inattentive ADHD symptoms, since diagnosis of this subtype is typically delayed until adolescence. My son doesn’t fit the stereotypical profile of a hyperactive/impulsive boy with ADHD, and I saw the struggles he was facing due to his ADHD symptoms which were often mistaken for laziness or a lack of interest by teachers, coaches, and other adults. I realized my 20-year research career, which included studying ADHD medications, would not prepare me to handle the challenges of being a mom to a son who was diagnosed with the inattentive subtype of ADHD. When searching for books to help me as a parent, I came to discover the current literature falls short of discussing inattentive-type ADHD in boys. My son and I knew it was important to share our story, to provide practical strategies to manage ADH

Glass half empty or is it really half full? Usually, ADHD is considered a problem. Franki suggests that it has some value in and of itself, such as: 1. Multi-tasking! Have you ever tried to pat your head and rub your stomach at the same time? Or maybe it’s the other way around… Well, I can’t do that! I can, however, watch tv/listen and write this blog, sing a song, and pet my dog! **It’s a myth that those with ADHD can’t focus. In reality, most of us struggle with focusing on one thing at a time or on something that isn’t so interesting. For me that’s the laundry. It’s always the laundry. Watch my tik tok to see what I mean! Read the rest of the blog post HERE  to find out the other 9 benefits of ADHD. It was well worth the time.
