"What you and Dr. Cerulli have to offer families is a blessing. It's been what I've been searching for, for years. My ADHD family floodgates have opened up since my daughter was first diagnosed in 2000. Since that time, my son, my oldest daughter, my niece, and my nephew have all joined her. I too just received my diagnosis. It finally dawned on me that they must have gotten it from somewhere. No one has to convince me about the genetic link."

"Dear Dr. Stern,

Every time I read one of your e-mails, I am moved to tears. Your outlook & professionalism is so refreshing, and unfortunately so rare, from what I have experienced so far.

The professionals I have met with so far have offered little in the way of help, understanding, reassurance, or encouragement. What a difference it would make for just one of them to reinforce what you say in you share - and what a truly wonderful, creative world we would live in to see people living their lives 'differently.'"

Of course it doesn't always start out that way... In fact, the first step is usually denial that medications are necessary. . . . keep reading
Understanding Differences: The Story You Tell And What You Have Been Told Is More Powerful Than Any Diagnosis
Rory F. Stern, PsyD
Understanding Differences: The Story You Tell And What You Have Been Told Is More Powerful Than Any Diagnosis Narrative therapy was first developed in the 1970's and 1980's by Australian family therapist Michael White. The theory suggests that an individual's identity is largely shaped and influenced by the stories that are told about them and to them. This would also hold true for the stories we tell ourselves or construct about our own experiences. . . . keep reading
Successful ADHD Treatment Begins With Awareness, Understanding, And Education Above All Else
Rory F. Stern, PsyD
Successful ADHD Treatment Begins With Awareness, Understanding, And Education Above All Else I hear from both readers and clients, as well as colleagues, all over the world that ADHD is greatly misunderstood wherever you go. Whether it's school systems, teachers, co-workers, peers, employers, spouses, and yes, even the medical professionals, many people struggle with how to best support an individual and family affected by ADHD. . . . keep reading
