'Hilarious, unflinching, wise' - Sara Pascoe. 'Intensely personal, highly educational and very funny' - Adam Kay. Some brains, through no fault of their own, pack a bag and escape to the seaside when faced with responsibilities. These are ADHD brains. The author shares her journey of living with undiagnosed Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, describing a life filled with frustration and chaos. With little focus, she often found herself hyper-focusing on the wrong things, repeating mistakes, and burning out to the point of tears. A diagnosis in her 40s illuminated her experiences, making sense of the confusion that had defined her life. Join the beloved comedian as she reflects on her past through the lens of ADHD, from the thrill of shoplifting to her attraction to toxic relationships. This exploration of living out of control is both heartbreaking and hilarious, offering insights that resonate with anyone who suspects they might have ADHD or simply seeks to understand the complexities of the human experience. Let the author guide you on a journey of self-discovery that may reveal something valuable about yourself along the way!
