How to ADHD, the book by Jessica McCabe

Jessica McCabe was diagnosed with ADHD at twelve and started the YouTube channel How to ADHD in 2015. It grew to more than a million subscribers. In 2024 she published How to ADHD: An Insider’s Guide to Working with Your Brain (Not Against It).

What it covers

Executive function, rejection sensitivity and attention regulation, plus strategies to adapt your environment, routines and emotional habits.

The one idea to keep

“When your brain works differently, you need to try different.” The book is about adjusting the system around you, not forcing yourself to be someone else.
