Synopsis

Have I Got Your Attention? is a fresh, practical and deeply relatable guide to Adult ADHD in Ireland, especially those who received their diagnosis later in life. With a foreword by Ken Kilbride, CEO of ADHD Ireland, this book brings together ten remarkable Irish voices – artists, medics, writers, inventors and more – each offering a candid glimpse into life as an ADHDer in Ireland.

From understanding the basics of assessment, diagnosis and treatment, to navigating work, relationships and everyday challenges, this guide provides clear and comprehensive insights tailored to the Irish context. It’s a toolkit for self-understanding and self-advocacy – empowering adult ADHDers to build lives that work for them. Have I Got Your Attention? also tackles stigma and misinformation head-on, celebrating all the positives that come with ADHD while acknowledging the hurdles too.

Packed with expert advice, lived experience, practical strategies and useful resources, this book is a must-read for anyone who wants to better understand ADHD – whether you’ve been diagnosed, are self-identifying, or simply want to join the conversation.
