About this listen

Darkly humorous, relatable and unflinchingly honest, Is it My ADHD? gives irreverent insight into what life is truly like for women and those assigned female at birth who are living with ADHD.

Much like the 3-4% of the British population with ADHD , Grace always felt on the outskirts of 'normal' but could never express why. When she was finally diagnosed in 2021, information on ADHD in women was scant. Now, neurodivergence is the hot topic on everyone's lips, and with the increased awareness, we've encountered a new challenge: how can we circumnavigate the misinformation and better understand our own brains?

In Is It My ADHD?, writer, journalist and podcaster Grace Timothy speaks to experts and those living with ADHD about what life is truly like as a neurodivergent adult, offering support, comfort and advice along the way, as well as providing the reader with tools to understand what ADHD really is.

With expert help, this book will bust the myths, offer helpful guides to different aspects of ADHD and give key insight into the lived experience of ADHD, exploring the common—and not so common—symptoms and traits specific to the women and those assigned female at birth, taking into account the various intersections of race, gender, culture and age.

This book was recommended by a friend, and it's such a great listen. As an adult in her late 30's currently awaiting an ADHD assessment, this book was extremely relatable. Very funny, lots of "oohhh that's why I do that", and Aha! moments. Lots of useful insights from others in the ADHD community, particularly women.

Highly recommend!

Grace’s book is disarmingly honest, very funny and a really valuable insight into the ways in which ADHD can manifest. I feel much better able to understand the ways in which I might be able to support a colleague, friend or family member who has ADHD - and it’s especially eye-opening on the subject of women being diagnosed as adults, and how they have almost all had to mask their symptoms for so long. Plus, Grace’s voice, intonation and humour are just lovely and a real pleasure to listen to. So whether you have an interest in ADHD, whether you have been diagnosed or whether you simply want a very funny and down to earth autobiography of a talented and interesting person, honestly order this.

Funny and informative

I am a late diagnosed ADHD woman ... Menopause pushed me over the edge ... Grace Timothy book has been most relatable for me to listen too (You know ADHD and reading)... The content, tone and pace was spot on... The A Ha moments ... The honesty about the effects and how it affects our lives ... I was hooked in the first chapter ... Story about inappropriate swearing is so me also ...

Most relatable ADHD book I have read listened to ...
