Focus? I Don’t Even Know Her: Surviving ADHD One Half-Finished Task at a Time

If you've ever walked into a room and immediately forgotten why, hyperfocused on organizing your spice rack at 3 a.m., or stared at a blinking cursor while wondering if you ever responded to that text from 2020… this book is for you. Focus? I Don't Even Know Her is your laugh-out-loud, painfully relatable guide to living with ADHD in a world that still expects you to return emails, remember appointments, and "just focus" like it's not the mental equivalent of herding caffeinated squirrels. With wit, warmth, and zero judgment, Quentin Shires—clinician, professional chaos navigator, and champion of emotionally wobbly humans—delivers an ADHD survival manual that's equal parts comfort, comedy, and "oh my god, same." Inside you'll find: The art of procrastinating like an absolute legend Why executive dysfunction is a mood (and not a moral failure) Meds, mental notes, and the dark magic of sticky tabs Time blindness, calendar betrayal, and other natural disasters And the deep truth that you're not broken—you just operate on a slightly different Wi-Fi signal Whether you're diagnosed, undiagnosed, self-diagnosed, or just suspiciously forgetful with a heart of gold and no clean laundry, this field guide will help you laugh through the mess, find community in the chaos, and finally feel seen by a book that's just as distractible as you are. Because your brain might be scattered—but your brilliance is not.
