Reframing the self-talk that can accompany ADHD

Small Talk organizes its guidance around ten damaging beliefs associated with ADHD, including ideas such as “I am lazy,” “Everybody hates me,” and “I quit everything I start.” Drawing on personal stories from Roxanne and Richard Pink alongside responses from their community, it examines how internalized stereotypes and neurotypical expectations can shape self-perception. The book offers a compassion-centered framework for identifying limiting beliefs, expressing needs and boundaries, and building greater understanding in ADHD relationships. Its scope includes both self-acceptance and practical communication with the people around you.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults with ADHD exploring self-critical beliefs and self-kindness
  • People newly diagnosed with ADHD or learning about neurodivergence
  • Partners and loved ones seeking to better understand and support someone with ADHD

Book overview

The beloved authors of Dirty Laundry break down the harmful stereotypes about people with ADHD to help you stop being your worst fear-leader, start bigging yourself up, and live your best neurodivergent life.

When "ADHD wife" Roxanne Pink and neurotypical husband Richard Pink asked their community of 2.5 million what the biggest ADHD struggle is, the thousands of replies changed everything. As they learned, the real enemy isn't productivity or focus, but the toxic ADHD core beliefs we've internalized.

With candor and kindness, they share personal stories to highlight and reframe the 10 big lies that ADHD people believe about themselves. From "I am lazy" to "Everybody hates me" and "I quit everything I start," Small Talk will empower ADHDers and those who love them to navigate life with compassion, humor, and hope.Whether you were diagnosed early or are new to the neurospicy community, Small Talk will change your relationship with yourself and others.

Learn how to:
- Identify your limiting ADHD beliefs
- Break free from neurotypical standards
- Support and understand your ADHDers
- Adopt a self-kindness mindset
- Communicate your needs & boundaries
- Celebrate the joys of ADHD
