This is a resource list for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). There are alot of resources out there and I plan to continue adding to this list as I come across things I have found valuable.
Books worth reading
ADHD 2.0
This book gives you a revolutionary perspective on the ADHD brain. It teaches you how the ADHD brain works and how to optimize your life working with your interest-driven brain. It also proposes the idea that there are people who may have not been born with ADHD but may have “variable attention trait”. This book teaches you to embrace Neurodiversity, find the right kind of difficult to keep you interested, and change your life.
Limitless
Jim Kwik is the world’s #1 brain coach. He teaches celebrities to memorize scripts and speeches. He has courses on how to speed read and memorize everything.

We have a problem with working memory which is an additional obstacle and this book offers actionable methods to start training your brain to improve.
