    If you're a woman who has attention deficit disorder (ADHD), you've likely always known you're different. We learn as females whose habits, thinking, learning, or working methods are favored, acceptable, tolerated, and frowned upon. These preferences are expressed in various ways, ranging from media and literature to discussions with classmates and parents in our first-grade classroom. 
    Females with ADHD learn via different channels throughout their lives that the way they believe, work, talk, connect, and behave does not line up with the desired way of being in the world. In other words, kids learn that diversity is a negative thing. And since these women are aware of their differences, they learn that they have been undesirable. It's past time to make a difference. 
    In this guide, you'll learn:Basics of ADHDSymptoms, Myths and causative factors of ADHDAssociated factors of ADHDADHD in Women, diagnosis, and managementAccepting your ADHD and coping with stigmaTreatment options for Adults with ADHDMeditation, Holistic eating for ADHDStrategies to excel at relationships, work, and away from home with ADHD

    A treasury of historical hilarity from the New York Times-bestselling coauthor of America’s Dumbest Criminals! Why exactly is Paul Revere revered when it was Samuel Prescott who made the famous ride? Was the lightbulb really Thomas Edison’s bright idea? Bestselling author and former Saturday Night Live writer Leland Gregory employs his masterful wit to expose historical myths, faux “facts,” strange events, and tales of human stupidity throughout history. You’ll learn that:  * Magellan didn’t actually make it around the world  * As a member of Parliament, Isaac Newton spoke only once, and it wasn’t exactly a statement of political brilliance for the ages  * On April 24, 1898, Spain declared war on the U.S., thus starting the Spanish-American War—and then the U.S. declared war the very next day, but not wanting to be outdone, had the date on the declaration changed from April 25 to April 21  With these and many more stories, Leland Gregory once again highlights the funny side of history.
