This was a good book to remind people with ADHD that it is okay to take care of themselves. That self-care is important.

Very helpful and not full of the toxic positivity like some books. It’s ok to think this sucks on occasion. This book gives you the tools to deal with it not mask it. The only way out is through and this book helps.

Self-Care for People with ADHD by Sasha Hamdani is a resourceful tool. Those who have been struggling with ADHD, or watch their loves one’s struggle, will likely not be surprised by the contents. It is not a manual for how to manage, but rather a collection of tools and permissions to do what brings life to your wonderfully, chaotic brain. Being surrounded by many with ADHD, I have learned there are common threads, and the things that help bring order to one, are not a one-size fits all. I appreciate the diverse collection of insights, tips, tools, and resources. Allow yourself to explore with an open perspective some new techniques that may prove useful in your coping repertoire. Each chapter has smaller sections that can be explored singularly, topically, or all at once. I enjoyed reading the whole book in one setting, then going back and taking my time on certain sections. I am happy to share this resource with my loved ones and highly recommend it to others who are looking for ways to enhance self-care while balancing ADHD.

I absolutely love how thorough and practical this manual is to all things #ADHD. From nutrition, to setting boundaries to time management and other coping strategies-- it addressed all the needs I have to address and even those I did not think there was a need to address in order to navigate life with an #ADHDBrain. Learning and relearning all the nuances will certainly help me address my emotional struggles when it comes to cutting out toxic folks out of my space. Life can be difficult enough to navigate and doing so while managing within a #nuerodisversified vessel leaves no room to put others (especially those who are inherently toxic) before tending to our own needs. The cat story was so darn hysterical! I highly recommend this guide as a beneficial tool to place in your #ADHD#sanitymaintenance#skillbuilding kit.

Thank you to the publisher and author for an advanced copy. All opinions are my own.

This book was easy to follow and I found a lot of the information useful. I could see how someone might find some of this repetitive, but for myself and having not read that much on ADHD until recently, this was a great starter and helped me understand a lot about myself.

This book divides up the 100+ strategies for self care across several categories/groupings: emotional, physical, mental, and social self care. Additional sections discuss career/professional self-care and practical self-care (finding doctors, driving and distraction, and other loose odds and ends).

I'm not sure most of what was in this book was particularly new and revolutionary, but throughout, I felt seen; I felt validated; I felt empowered. I appreciated that it was written more as a list, because I feel like I can draw on it more readily...and it made it easier and less intimidating to read sections of it as well. Overall, I thought this was helpful!

This had some great advice, but it wasn’t anything I haven’t seen before. I also wish some of the ideas were more detailed or had some examples. Helpful for someone who hasn’t read much on ADHD or self-care

Full disclosure- I follow the author on social media so I was extremely excited to receive an ARC of this book from the publisher and NetGalley. First off, I need to thank the author for everything she does. She has really helped me deal with my late diagnosis ADHD and explains the difficulties I have without making excuses. Offering acceptance and coping strategies rather than ways to change (which often these books do). There are so many practical tips and suggestions that I’ll probably need to dip in and out of this book. I think the content resonates with me so much is that the author really gets it. Some of these books have tips for being efficient in a world that doesn’t match your inner experiences, because they are written by ‘experts’ who don’t have loved experience rather just observe others. Our author has both personal and professional experience and I appreciate her honesty in sharing these in this book. I’ll definitely be buying a physical copy so that I can refer back to sections as needed. I’ll also be recommending to friends to support them in their journeys or to help them to understand my struggles a bit more (because it’s so hard to explain sometimes!). Love everything about this book.
