Aprašymas

A clear and proven framework that allows adults with ADHD to take charge of their emotions, from the founder of The Center for ADHD.
 
As a clinical psychologist specializing in Adult ADHD, Dr. Marcy Caldwell has found through her research that the regulatory system in the ADHD brain is wired differently: feelings turn on and off with great intensity like a light switch, compared to neurotypical brains where emotions build gradually like a dimmer. Many people feel unable to control when their switches turn on and off: 70% of the 15.5 million U.S. adults with ADHD report emotional dysregulation so significant that it impacts their life. But this symptom is rarely talked about-until now.
 
In Unstuck, Marcy reveals the methodology she's used with countless clients to help them manage these extremes. This book:

• Is tailored to keep the ADHD brain engaged, with short sections, understandable exercises, and visual aids (including plenty of charts and illustrations)
• Uses an evidence-based, client-tested framework of color-coded strategies to recognize the intensity of an emotion and de-escalate it (from a raging red to a calm green)
• Offers tricks for remembering and utilizing the system even in highly dysregulated moments
• Explains the science behind the ADHD brain's regulatory system in easy-to-understand terms
