About this ebook
ADHD Sleeping Problems are much more common than people realize. For example, did you know that more than 50% of adults with ADHD have on-going sleep problems, and 27% have chronic insomnia? If you are frustrated, tired, depressed and or anxious about your ADHD sleep problems, then you have come to the right place.
I have been working with ADHD adults for 8 years and been in the health field for 20 years. As a former nurse, I know the importance of sleep, both for long term and short term health. I researched sleep and ADHD so that I could create a unique sleeping plan for every client. However, now you don’t have to work with me privately. I have written everything I know on how to sleep well in the ‘How to sleep very well when you have ADHD’ Sleep Guide. It contains the facts you need and how to implement the actions into your life without drastic changes.

My Story
I was born and raised in England. When I was eighteen years old, I left home and trained to be a nurse. As a surgical nurse, I loved the daily interaction with people, as well as the hustle and bustle of daily hospital life. However, I found there was never enough time to do what I really enjoyed and this was something that is very beneficial. What I really loved was ‘one-on-one’ conversation with the patients and their relatives.
After some soul searching, I decided to make a career change. I still wanted the daily interaction with people and to make a positive difference in their lives, but in a different way. At the time I didn’t know what exactly this different method would be. However, I thought studying psychology would be a good start. It was during my final year of the psychology degree that I
