I am interested in buying your extra book, but I don't want to give my address on this site. Call me paranoid but I don't like putting too much personal info on open sites. You can email me at charvt@yahoo.com.

The book I liked a lot & provided me with a lot of insight was called, I believe, "What does everybody know that I don't". I'm not sure of the author though.

I am working my way through Sari Solden's bood: WOMEN WITH ADD, Embracing disorganization at home and in the workplace. It has specifically helped my to legitimize my life's frustrations through identifying them with a disorder; to understand the hard hit to self esteem and depression that ADD may contribute to;
overall to take my ADD more seriously and legitimately. Which those around me do not. Thanks for this site!
