Empowerment Through Understanding ADHD
Now It All Makes Sense, the author's debut book, aims to empower individuals, especially women and girls, who have faced misunderstanding and stigma surrounding ADHD. The book speaks to those who have received a late ADHD diagnosis, been unfairly labeled, or struggled with misdiagnoses like anxiety disorders. It also caters to individuals grappling with a fear of rejection or seeking to comprehend their ADHD partners. By shedding light on undiagnosed ADHD and dispelling the notion of inherent personal flaws, the book seeks to instill a sense of self-worth and acceptance.
Reframing Narratives and Embracing Differences
Through Now It All Makes Sense, readers are encouraged to reframe their life narratives, particularly in the context of undiagnosed ADHD. The book offers solace to those mourning the unrealized potential of an earlier diagnosis, emphasizing that they are not deficient but uniquely different. By normalizing the experience of living with ADHD and advocating self-acceptance, the author aims to help individuals recognize their intrinsic value and move forward with a positive self-image.
