About this listen
'Laugh out loud funny and deeply validating - every person who thinks ADHD isn't real should read this book' Leanne Maskell, author of ADHD: An A to Z
Nobody should spend their life feeling defective. Everyone deserves to have a user manual to their brain - welcome to yours.
Once associated more with hyper boys than adults, ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) is now recognised as a condition in need of a rebrand which affects people of all genders and ages in a multitude of ways.
In this enlightening and definitive layman's guide, Kat Brown cheerfully smashes the stereotypes with scientific evidence, historical context, and practical support for ADHD minds across areas that can cause problems, from finances and work to self-medicating, relationships, hormones and self-esteem.
Based on Kat's personal experience and extensive interviews with ADHDers and world-leading clinical experts, It's Not A Bloody Trend is for anyone wondering if what's always been 'wrong' with them might just be undiagnosed ADHD.©2024 Kat Brown
Critic Reviews
With It's Not A Bloody Trend, Kat Brown has cut through all the noise about ADHD to create an incisive, brilliantly written and - above all - deeply comforting book (Bryony Gordon)
A sledgehammer of a book putting to bed all the cynicism and misinformation around a condition that affects so many hidden, brilliant people. Read it if you live, or think you might live, with ADHD. Definitely read it if your lack of understanding leads you to believe it's just a bloody trend. It bloody well isn't. Only a neurodivergent person living with ADHD could write such a brilliantly informative yet easy to read book about ADHD. Kat Brown adeptly deconstructs the prevailing cynicism about a condition that could be so easily diagnosed and treated. If this book doesn't challenge the discrimination that so many neurodivergent people live with, I don't know what will (Professor Tanya Byron)
Whether you've been diagnosed with ADHD, are waiting to be assessed or simply want to know more about a condition that was ignored in women for years, It's Not A Bloody Trend is going to change your outlook for good. Writer Kat Brown felt like there was something "deeply wrong" with her for decades... until she was diagnosed with ADHD at age 37. Read her brilliant story about living - and thriving - with the
condition. It's like a salve for complicated brains
condition. It's like a salve for complicated brains
I read to either lose myself in a different world or because I'm interested in learning about how other people's brains work, BUT I have NEVER read a book where every chapter feels like someone has sat in your own brain for your entire life and has now written your biography. It's a mixture of being shaken up and delighted at being so seen, and understanding how so many of the weird issues I've had my whole life were because of ADHD... What an exceptional book (Stacey Heale, author of 'Now is Not the Time for Flowers')
Laugh out loud funny and deeply validating - every person who thinks ADHD isn't real should read this book. Unputdownable (Leanne Maskell, author of 'ADHD: An A to Z')
You can't influence the past but you can influence the future − and, drawing on lived experience, this book might just show you how (Professor Susan Young, president of the UK ADHD Partnership, co-founder in 1994 of the UK's first adult ADHD clinic, and co-author of the 2008 NICE guidelines on adult ADHD)
My favourite non-fiction release of 2024 was Kat Brown's It's Not A Bloody Trend, a sympathetic, authoritative and witty breakdown of what it means to live with ADHD. Packed with fascinating interviews with people experiencing ADHD and helpful advice on dealing with it - and people in your life who have it, diagnosed or otherwise - Kat's book helps dispels the unkind myths and unhinged claims about a condition that isn't going anywhere any time soon (The Guyliner)
