amazing
I can't believe I read this all the way through, understanding every part of it. when I got diagnosed a year ago I was completely lost. I found rich and rox on FB and was blown away. I found this book soon after and my life began to make sense and all the things is struggled with in life became a little more clear. I was realising I wasn't alone. the book is written so well that I felt like they were with me on my journey of self discovery as I read each page I was in awe at the way they seemed to understand me by just filling in my empty mind gaps! I'm actually thankful that I found these two amazing people. They really don't know how they've helped change my life in the last year and for the future too. I owe them so much. thank you Rich and Rox for helping me with my life.

I have never felt more seen
As someone who is struggling with ADHD, this made me feel so seen and I spend most of it shaking my head in disbelief that I am not alone in my feelings and that there is actually a compassionate way to look at my brain! Thank you very much for writing this!

amazing must read
Love that it's narrated by them but what I love most is the sentiment. Recognising and explaining how neurodivergent people may struggle and (perhaps more importantly) how this can so badly impact them and providing ways to live with better self beliefs and understanding.
All people should listen to this but especially those who know someone neurodivergent.
This will be a repetition book for me, listening over and over throughout my life.

More ADHD lightbulb Moments
I've listened to a lot of ADHD books and podcasts since my diagnosis. Chapter 8 really resonated with me, the fact I don't cry, have masked all my feelings and my OH struggles to manage my feelings or perceived laziness and faffing about. Always something new to discover!

The BEST book on ADHD
I could step into Rox shoes so well... to have someone understand you better than you do yourself is just gold and freeing

So glad I found it!
Raw, personal experiences that hit home in every single chapter... I'm beyond extatic for finding the book. Although I'm not officially diagnosed (I would have to arrange a doctor's appointment, and we know how much admin is involved in that!) and some of the examples were more hardcore than in my life, I could relate and be surprised at everything I heard. I've left the love of my life after 15 years full of mostly love and support (with the occasional frustration at my messy housekeeping) because I felt unwanted, useless and unloved. Now I feel even more stupid for letting go of such an amazing friend and soulmate, who had my back and thought me how to survive in this world...

So relatable
This is the book you need to listen to ( or read) if you care about an Adhder . Especially if you believe we “ play the card” or don’t do the thing you want us to do as good as you would like us too. Trauma? Much !

A must read for ADHDers and their loved ones.
I wasn’t sure if I was going to get this second book by the pinks, but it was totally worth it, every chapter resonated with feelings I have had as a person with ADHD and I really hope my partner will listen because I think it gives the best insight into how I feel about myself and how I feel I could be supported by my partner. It’s on my essential reading list I will give to any person I encounter with ADHD.
