As everyone surely knows by now, I am celebrating the launch of my new book “10 Things I Hate about ADHD (Plus 10 More),” which is a book intended to be funny. And likewise, as someone with ADHD, I just can’t shut-up about it (or maybe that’s just me). So, to help me celebrate I asked my fellow ADD ADHD bloggers to help me, and they did that by providing their funniest personal stories concerning ADHD. Get ready to laugh, cry and probably recognize yourself  in a few of the following stories. Be sure to visit these bloggers websites, they are all great people and writers sharing their stories and helping others live better lives while coping with ADD ADHD. Without further ado, here are the first 5 stories: The funniest thing that has ever happened to me wasn’t funny at the time. By Brenda Nicholson of AnADDWoman.com I always hosted the family Christmas dinner every year. There […]

It’s an honor to present you with many of the best ADD ADHD blogs on the web. If it’s cool with you, I’d like to say a few words before we get to these awesome websites… It’s kind of strange, really. When I think about it. This blog, ADDer World, used to take up so much of my time. I used to spend morning, noon and night thinking up new topics to write about and then Hyperfocus on writing about them. And then suddenly, I stopped. That’s the way of ADHD sometimes. It’s the way of my life. I can get so intensely interested in doing something and then all at once, one day, I’ll just stop. No warning whatsoever, and when I stop something, I usually don’t look back. Well, perhaps years later I’ll look back and wax nostalgically and sometimes (far too often) there will be pings (deep […]

I hate admitting this, but I procrastinated on publishing my new book “10 Things I Hate about ADHD, Plus 10 More” for over a year because the original, short free version had well over 100, 000 downloads. It became one of the most downloaded free eBooks about ADHD. And I just knew an extended version, no matter how good, might not do nearly as well, especially for sell. (The original had the right time, right place, right subject, all that right stuff. Right.) But this week I finally took the leap and published the extended version on Amazon. I still hesitated and almost didn’t publish it because I didn’t want it to fail (I didn’t want to fail), but then I realized it’s enough to actually follow through and do what I said I would do. Whew! Follow through and do whatever it is that you want to do. Like […]

I am very happy to make one very important announcement and quite sad about another announcement I am also making today. These are the most important announcements I will make this year concerning the work I do in the ADHD community. Let’s start out with the announcement that makes me (and hopefully you) most happy! Perhaps you remember a little eBook titled “10 Things I Hate about ADHD”? It became one of the most downloaded eBooks about ADHD and by far the most popular book I ever wrote. It was so popular, it took me by surprise and I had to create a separate email address for those who wanted to contact me about the darned book. I really didn’t think too much about it when I first wrote it, it was just 10 simple jokes that most of us with ADHD could relate to. I didn’t take it that […]
