Here are my top 5 selling Adult ADD Books for the first half of 2009:

The Disorganized Mind: Coaching Your ADHD Brain to Take Control of Your Time, Tasks, and Talents by Nancy Ratey

You Mean I'm Not Lazy, Stupid or Crazy?!: The Classic Self-Help Book for Adults with Attention Deficit Disorder by Kate Kelly and Peggy Ramundo

Delivered from Distraction: Getting the Most out of Life with Attention Deficit Disorder by Edward Hallowell and John Ratey

ADD-Friendly Ways to Organize Your Life by Judith Kolberg and Kathleen Nadeau

Women with Attention Deficit Disorder: Embrace Your Differences and Transform Your Life by Sari Solden

Did you see today's Dr. Phil Show about Adult ADD? I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by the show. In all honestly I don't usually watch Dr. Phil because his arrogance usually irritates me too much. I think that both Dr. Hallowell and Dr. Phil did a great show and brought some much needed attention to Adult ADD and how it impacts personal relationships and marriages. I really hope that people who watched it are able to get the help they need.

The ADD Book Club will be discussing the new book More Attention, Less Deficit: Success Strategies for Adults with ADHD by Dr. Ari Tuckman during a special summer session.  You can win a Free membership to the ADD Book Club for July and August. Contest details and a special bonus will be announced promptly at 9:00 pm EDT on June 30, 2009 during Dr. Ari Tuckman's Live Teleseminar: Coping Mechanisms that Work (and Don't Work) for Adults with ADHD.

In just 5 short months the Women with ADHD online support network has reached more than 1000 members! If you are woman with ADD / ADHD make sure you stop by Women with ADHD. There's an active message board forum area to give and get support from other women with ADHD. There's also a chat room and ADHD Coach Becca Colao hosts a weekly support chat on Tuesdays at 9:30 am New York Time. There are also some other great resources at the Women with ADHD online support network for you to check out!

I think that online support communities for ADD / ADHD are great. Sites like ADD Forums and Women with ADHD really help people connect with each other and learn more about Attention Deficit Disorder. However, online Attention Deficit Disorder support communities are not a one stop place for everything related to ADHD.

People who are taking medication for ADHD need to communicate with their doctors about side effects! If you are having chest pains or trouble breathing you should not be over at ADD Forums writing a detailed post about it. You should be contacting your doctor, calling 911, or on your way to the Emergency Room.

No, I am not kidding! I have seen people do this!

I just learned from my friend and colleague Jennifer Koretsky that the NBC Weekend Today Show will be airing a segment about Adult ADHD this Sunday morning. The Adult ADHD segment is scheduled to are at 8:15 am EDT on a Sunday morning.

I am assuming that the purpose is of this segment is to educate the general public about Adult ADHD and help those people struggling with Adult ADHD symptoms find help. I'm thinking the NBC Weekend Today Show didn't research Adult ADHD too well if they think a typical person with undiagnosed ADHD will be awake and watching the Today Show that early on a Sunday morning at 8:15 am.

I guess we can hope that spouses, partners, friends, family, and co-workers of people with undiagnosed Adult ADHD will be awake that early to watch. Maybe NBC will re-air the segment at a time when more people with undiagnosed Adult ADHD might actually watch the segment.

Update: I'm having real ADHD Day!! Jennifer Koretsky is actually going to be ON this segement! I missed that important part when she mentioned the segment!

Update 2: Boston only airs Weekend Today from 7-8 on Sundays. Luckily I get the Providence RI NBC Station too.

This coming Monday, June 8th I will be speaking at the Virtual ADHD Family Summit about Women and Girls with ADD/ADHD. The Virtual ADHD Family Summit is free and you can listen via the telephone or internet. My interview begins at 9:00 pm EDT.

Next Tuesday and every Tuesday morning Becca Colao will be hosting a chat over at the Women with ADHD Online Community. This chat is free and open to all members of the Women with ADHD Online Community. Just log into Women with ADHD and click the chat link towards the bottom right of the site.

So, I was taking a look at my blog stats today and somebody found my blog by searching for adhd wife spits on husband through Google. This is one of the most interesting search terms I've seen in quite some time. Somebody did find my blog last week searching for information about Michael Phelps and his penis size but I didn't think that was interesting enough for an entire blog post.

For the life of me I can't understand why the post Married to ADHD comes up #3 in Google for adhd wife spits on husband. There's no mention of the word spit in the actual blog entry or the comments. At least I can see how somebody found the blog searching for Michael Phelps' Penis Size. I've written a few different entries about Michael Phelps and also the posts Penis Size and ADHD & ADHD Penis.

I can only imagine what's going on in a marriage where a woman with ADHD is spitting on her husband! Or does the wife of a man with ADHD spit on her her husband...I guess I'll probably never know...but it makes me wonder and gives me something to write about on my blog today!!

Those of you who read my blog, follow me on Twitter, or are My Facebook friend know that I have been exercising regularly for the past few months. My regular blog readers and those who know me, know that it's been somewhat of a challenge for me too. Though exercise was not something I enjoyed I have been doing it...

About a month ago my husband and I bought the Wii and the Wii Fit. I am really pleased and surprised to say that over the past month I've actually been having some fun exercising and using the Wii Fit. As somebody with Adult ADHD it also keeps my interest and attention. There are different types of exercises and are done for 2 and 3 minutes at a time. Also the more you exercise the more exercise options you get to choose from.

If you don't already own a Wii, it will be close to a $350 investment. I think the Wii Fit was definitely a good investment for us but we did research it first and we waited over a month before purchasing it.
