The world's foremost expert shares advice on later-in-life ADHD, tackling everything from finances, parenting, planning for retirement, social life and work, in this practical and helpful guide for those with and without a diagnosis.

Do you...

Forget to pay bills?

Live in a disorganised environment?

Struggle with mental health?

Procrastinate on projects, even ones that initially excite you?

Have high levels of conflict with those close to you?

Have a child diagnosed with ADHD and/or a family history of learning disorders?

If some of these patterns sound familiar, you might understandably fear the onset of dementia, but you may have undiagnosed attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). ADHD in adults is one of the most common disorders. Living with ADHD in our later years is hugely influenced by co-occurring issues, such as anxiety, depression or low self-esteem. In addition, the presence of learning disorders, heightened levels of stress, the presence or lack of support from others, and the number of people we are responsible for, can all complicate and intensify the effects of ADHD.

The good news is that you've come to the right place to learn more about how to lead a calmer, happier, more productive life. Dedicated to the health and wellbeing of today's older adults with ADHD, Still Distracted After All These Years offers strategies to build a support system, gain better control over your daily life and create a more ADHD-friendly retirement.
