A late understanding of ADHD

Linda Sammons recounts a long search to understand the academic challenges that shaped her life, beginning in college and continuing into her late thirties. The account centers on living with ADHD before she had a name for many of her difficulties, and on the adaptations she used to navigate successive hurdles. Independence and the everyday demands of survival frame this personal story, which connects the work of identifying a challenge with the effort to find ways through it.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in personal stories about ADHD
  • Readers seeking accounts of academic challenges and adaptation
  • Those interested in memoirs about independence and navigating daily demands

Book overview

In college, a professor once said, "First you have to find out what the problem is, then you try to solve it." My story is about that long journey of not knowing what my academic challenge was until I was well out of college. The ups and downs of living with ADHD. Not understanding my many challenges until in my late thirties. My story is about that journey--the constant task of being independent and meeting the demands of survival. As you read my story, you will witness the many challenges, the adaptation I utilized to get from one hurdle to another. Ultimately, I share this experience with hopes of enlightening someone's life.
