The Link Between Add and Addiction: Getting the Help You Deserve

 
The Link Between Add and Addiction: Getting the Help You Deserve
by Wendy Richardson

GET THE HELP YOU DESERVE.

It has been estimated that 15 million American suffer from Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), and that as many as 50 percent of them use alcohol and other drugs to medicate their ADD symptoms.

Alcohol and drugs can reduce the symptoms of ADD-short attention span, difficulty in relationships, chaotic energy-allowing those with ADD to focus on tasks and calm their restless bodies and minds. But drugs, alcohol, food, and other addictive behaviors-like spending, working, or gambling-cause numerous problems of their own.

The Link Between ADD & Addiction offers both hope and help for those with ADD who find themselves involved in addictive behaviors. Complete with self-tests and checklists to help identify ADD symptoms and addictive behavior, The Link Between ADD & Addiction sensitively addresses the problems and offers insight and practical solutions readers can use to take action to solve their problems and be successful in recovery.

"ADD can be difficult to face. For those who are also dealing with addiction, the combination can be devastating. The Link Between ADD & Addiction is just what's needed for the individuals, families, and professionals who deal with ADD and addiction."-Pia Mellody, R.N., national and international speaker, and author of Facing Codependence, Breaking Free, and Facing Love Addiction

"Through the use of metaphors, humor, and personal sharing, Wendy Richardson brings the reader to an understanding of the link between ADD and addiction. She combines up-to-date information from the field of neuroscience with the proven methods of addiction specialists to provide a rational course of treatment. The Link Between ADD & Addiction charts a solid course to true recovery."-John J. Ratey, M.D., coauthor of Driven to Distraction and Answers to Distraction, and Nancy A. Ratey, EDM, ADD coach

5 out of 5 stars concise, complete explanation of ADD and addiction link, December 20, 1999

  Reviewer: Cynthia Hammer (see more about me) from Tacoma, WA

Wendy has written a clear explanation of what ADD is and how it impacts a person's life. She explains how many people with ADD also have problems with a variety of addictions, and what they can do about it. Wendy has personal insight into both problem areas, as well as extensive professional training, so her writing on these topics has both depth and breadth. The book is written for the lay person, is not over-whelming, and is clear and concise. Anyone who thinks they have both ADD and addictions would greatly benefit from reading this book.
