Procrastination. Disorganization. Distractibility. Millions of adults have long considered these the hallmarks of a lack of self-discipline. But for many, these and other problems in school, at work and in social relationships are actually symptoms of an inborn neurological problem: ADD, or Attention Deficit Disorder.

Through vivid stories of the experiences of their patients—both adults and children—Dr. Edward R. Hallowell and Dr. John J. Ratey show the varied forms ADD takes—from the hyperactive search for high stimulation to the floating inattention of daydreaming—and the transforming impact of precise diagnosis and treatment.

Driven to Distraction is a must listen for everyone intrigued by the workings of the human mind.

5 stars essential ADHD reading
The authors finally came to know they were ADHD in adulthood as did I through this book in particular. I loved the audio version as I have trouble concentrating on a whole book - I listened to the whole thing in 2 hours while completing other tasks.
