About this audiobook
This book is for anyone who has ever wondered why a glass of wine becomes three, or why a quiet night out turns into a blur. If you were diagnosed with ADHD later in life—or are beginning to suspect you might be on the spectrum—this book offers a compassionate, evidence-informed exploration of the deep connection between ADHD and alcohol. You will learn how ADHD brains often turn to alcohol as a form of self-medication, why that strategy backfires, and how to understand your drinking without shame. Drawing on mainstream clinical consensus and the lived experiences of late-diagnosed adults, this guide helps you recognise your own patterns, have honest conversations with clinicians, and build practical, sustainable strategies for cutting down or stopping if you choose. It does not offer a cure or a one-size-fits-all plan, but a pathway to self-understanding and genuine change. Part of The Late Diagnosis Library.
