It's time for traditional sleep advice to truly consider the neurodivergent mind.

> If you’re buzzing at night and can’t switch off
> If you struggle to implement routines and sleep schedules
> If you can’t stop yourself hitting 'snooze' each morning

READ THIS BOOK!

Awareness around ADHD and neurodiversity is growing rapidly, with diagnoses increasing and many more recognising symptoms without formal diagnosis. But when it comes to sleep, it is common to spread the same advice – go to bed earlier, wind down, cut screen time – without considering how sleep affects the neurodivergent mind differently.

In The ADHD Sleep Book, UKCP accredited Psychotherapist and Slep Specialist Heather Darwall-Smith guides you through sleep advice tailored for your unique brain. Through relatable scenarios and practical interventions, this book help you understand:

- Why sleep deprivation hits people with ADHD so hard.
- Why traditional sleep advice fails neurodivergent minds.
- How to create a realistic sleep routine and bedtime system that actually works for your brain.


Rather than forcing yourself into rigid schedules that don’t fit, this book shows you how to work with your natural rhythms, reduce sleep anxiety and build sustainable habits for better rest. Supportive, validating and practical, The ADHD Sleep Book will help you feel understood, empowered and equipped to make realistic changes, so you can finally get the sleep you need.

'The ADHD Sleep Book combines evidence-based explanations of sleep disorders with real, individual and practical tools to break the exhaustion cycle' - Dr Alex Conner, Co-host of The ADHD Adults Podcast.

Couldn't get on with the infantalizing tone of this book. A handful of ok tips buried in a sea of namby pamby boring stuff. This book is largely the author promoting her "practice" and telling you how clever and empathetic she is with clients. The first few chapters are also just explaining what ADHD is without even addressing sleep, which is annoying given most picking up this book would naturally already know. I feel I could have got all the tips from a ten minute sesh with chatgpt and I'd have avoided being wound up by the tone of this patronising book for six hours. don't recommend.
