A central source of frustration for most adults with ADHD is that they know what they need to do but they have difficulties turning their intentions into actions. These difficulties also interfere with their ability to use self-help books and to get the most out of psychosocial treatments that provide coping strategies that promise to improve their functioning. Drs. Ramsay and Rostain are experts in the assessment and treatment of adult ADHD and are leaders in the development of effective psychosocial treatments for this group of patients. Their newest book, The Adult ADHD Tool Kit: Using CBT to Facilitate Coping Inside and Out is a coping guide for adults living with ADHD, one that does not just present useful coping strategies but also provides specific tactics designed to help readers implement these skills in their daily lives and brings them to life in a user-friendly format. The authors discuss many different settings in which ADHD may cause difficulties, including work, school, matters of physical health and well-being, and the issue of excessive use of technology. Although written for consumers, clinicians will find the book to be a clinically useful tool for their adult patients with ADHD, serving as a companion to the newly updated and expanded second edition of Drs. Ramsay and Rostain’s professional treatment manual, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Adult ADHD: An Integrative Psychosocial and Medical Approach.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Adult ADHD: An Integrative Psychosocial and Medical Approach has been revised, updated, and expanded for this second edition and remains the definitive book for clinicians seeking to treat adults with ADHD. Clinicians will continue to benefit from the presentation of an evidence-supported treatment approach for adults with ADHD that combines cognitive behavioral therapy and pharmacotherapy adapted for this challenging clinical population. The updated edition of the book offers new and expanded case examples, and the authors emphasize more detailed, clinician-friendly "how to" instructions for the delivery of specific interventions for adult patients with ADHD. Understanding that most adults with ADHD say, "I know exactly what I need to do, but I just cannot make myself do it," the book pays special attention to the use of implementation strategies to help patients carry out the necessary coping skills to achieve improvements in functioning and well-being in their daily lives. In addition to providing an outline of their treatment approach, Drs. Ramsay and Rostain provide an up-to-date review of the current scientific understanding of the etiology, developmental course, and life outcomes of adults with ADHD as well as the components of an thorough diagnostic evaluation. As an added clinical resource, Drs. Ramsay and Rostain have also produced a companion patient handbook written for adults with ADHD, The Adult ADHD Tool Kit: Using CBT to Facilitate Coping Inside and Out, which clinicians can use with their patients.

Living with ADHD comes with a whole set of challenges that not everyone can understand. It goes beyond merely an inability to sit still or stay focused. It's more than just impulsive behaviors and a mind that will not stop. It's feeling like there is too much going on, and then also feeling bored. It's the overstimulation and frustration. It's the anxiety and irritability. It's the depression, guilt, shame, and paralysis when faced with the overwhelming. Too many days feel like we are treading water. Well, enough of that! This book contains the toolkit that has helped me learn to enjoy my life. Things that were weaknesses are now superstrengths. I can enjoy my homelife and career. Even my relationships with family, friends, and acquantances have drastically improved. I have managed to take control of the chaos. This book is not a panacea or replacement for professional care, but rather something that can be supplimental. It is also not an overnight cure. However, all of the exercises, tips, and little "Aha!" moments that have taken me decades to amass and learn have all been added to this book. It will also be up to you to start the journey and stick with it. As with anything, your results will be a reflection of the effort you put in. I'm hopping that with this, you'll be on a faster track than I was, and will also be able to enjoy the journey.
