How to deal with a racing mind | Dr. Clay Brites

People's behavior can say a lot about them. If your child has difficulty maintaining attention, is always restless, seems not to listen when called, talks too much, and is always "at a thousand miles an hour," it is possible that they have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

In this book, Dr. Clay Brites — a specialist with over twenty years of clinical experience — translates the language of neuroscience into practical, clear, and accessible terms. He offers assertive ways to deal with the challenges brought by this condition and to overcome difficulties in a realistic and evidence-based manner.

You will learn about:
- The history of ADHD and how the brain of someone with the disorder functions;
- How to identify ADHD in children, adolescents, and adults based on official diagnostic criteria;
- What to do after the diagnosis: treatments, therapeutic approaches, and the myths and truths about the disorder;
- The importance of school inclusion and the rights of people with ADHD.
