ADHD i zaburzenia lękowe osób dorosłych. Sprawdzone strategie CBT, dzięki którym odzyskasz spokój i poczucie sprawczości
Jeśli zmagasz się z zespołem nadpobudliwości psychoruchowej z deficytem uwagi (ADHD), prawdopodobnie doświadczasz trudności z koncentracją, niepowodzeń w relacjach interpersonalnych z innymi ludźmi, a może nawet poczucia „inności”. Nic więc dziwnego, że osoby z ADHD są aż dwukrotnie bardziej narażone na zaburzenia lękowe - są one jedną z najczęściej współwystępujących trudności emocjonalnych. Wyzwania związane z ADHD są dodatkowo potęgowane przez stres i niepokój, co sprawia, że zwyczajne problemy i zmartwienia wydają się jeszcze bardziej przytłaczające. Jeśli codzienność przynosi ci uczucie niepokoju, lęku czy ciągłego zamartwiania się – ten praktyczny samouczek pomoże ci odzyskać kontrolę nad swoim życiem.
W książce znajdziesz kompleksowe podejście do radzenia sobie z ADHD, któremu towarzyszy nadmierny, utrudniający codzienne funkcjonowanie lęk. Opierając się na sprawdzonej i skutecznej terapii poznawczo-behawioralnej (CBT) – uznawanej za złoty standard w leczeniu tych zaburzeń u osób dorosłych – poradnik oferuje skuteczne narzędzia, które pomogą złagodzić twoje objawy, zwiększyć pewność siebie, utrzymać koncentrację i odnaleźć tak bardzo potrzebny ci spokój. Starannie dobrane ćwiczenia umożliwią ci wdrożenie tych metod w codzienne życie.

November 12, 2025Finished listening to audiobook & might like to revisit how to manage procrastivity, scheduling tasks. Inconvenient that worksheets available online require setting up an account with New Harbinger, which is a barrier to prompt access. This is esp unhelpful give the target audience of ADHDers will often lose interest due to the extra step.
Seems overall helpful, & I might look through a print copy to check

As if the book was written based on my diaries 👀
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for to learn more about and target executive dysfunction leading to avoidance and escapism behaviour in ADHD affected people. A good book.

As an adult with both conditions, I found this book unnecessarily depressing. The author repeats endless descriptions of the deficits of ADHD, without mentioning anything positive. It is written for the use of someone who has not fully mastered using an agenda or planner. It could be helpful for high school or college students or recently diagnosed adults, but I would proceed with caution if the reader is currently in a depressive state.

Great framework with Cognitive, Behaiviaral, Emotional and Realisation elements that help to navigate complexity of the character traits.

This would have served a better purpose in a hard copy edition. Some good advice, but nothing that I have not heard before.

Homework? As an adult? Some pretty helpful tips though.
