  Today's book excerpt comes from  Andrew's Awesome Adventures with His ADHD Brain   by Kristin and Andrew Wilcox.  A lways D isorganized and H opelessly D istracted (ADHD)   Blink, blink, blink, the cursor keeps time on the blank screen as thoughts rush through my brain like a runaway freight train. “What was that book about? Who were the characters?” Oh, where to begin? There are just too many details to think about. My thoughts drift aimlessly as I stare out of my bedroom window. It’s a sunny day, and there is the smell of freshly cut grass pulling my attention to what I could be doing. I wish I were riding my bike or fishing down at the stream. Instead, here I am stuck at my desk, writing a dreaded book report for English class. Correction, I am not writing it. I wish I could make myself write it. If I were writing it, then I could be done with it. All I want is to be done with it. Why didn’t I start working on it when it was assigned to us weeks ago? “Ugh!” Now, it’s the

October Is ADHD Awareness Month - guest post from Dr. Kristin Wilcox

Image
“My brain is an overstuffed garbage can — the lid doesn’t stay on, and stuff is falling out all over the floor.” This is how my son describes what it’s like to have ADHD.   When he was initially diagnosed, I thought I understood ADHD: it was found mostly in boys who were hyperactive, impulsive, fidgeting, blurting out in the classroom. My son, who had been diagnosed with the inattentive subtype of ADHD, had none of these behaviors.   Unfortunately, the stereotypical view of a boy with ADHD has changed little over the past several decades.   This was the motivation for my son and I to share our experiences with his ADHD in our book Andrew's Awesome Adventures with His ADHD Brain   (MSI Press, 2022).   I continue my mission of spreading awareness of inattentive-type ADHD, particularly in boys, through my blog on Psychology Today , and by writing for various ADHD groups.   October is ADHD Awareness Month, and you can read more about my journey with my ADHD son in this article
