PRINCE GEORGE- The term ADHD has become more familiar with each year that goes past. John A. Brink, a local author, hopes to help people more understand the disorder with his new book ADHD Unlocked.

This is the second book written by Brink. This time it is telling the stories of those living with ADHD, a very personal topic for John.

“I found out about it first when I was 57,” said Brink. “I was standing there looking at it, and it was a book that talked about ADHD. I said, oh my god, that is me And I bought a book I wrote, and now I finally know who I am.”

The book released this week collaborated with numerous people diagnosed with ADHD, including a local physician.

“It still falls under technically, a mental health condition. None of us are particularly broken with ADHD,” said Dr. Tracey Lotze, an emergency and family physician. ” We kind of process a little differently, some of us chaotically, some of us distractedly, and some in hyperfocus.”

One of the book’s main goals was to bring awareness to ADHD and shine a more positive light on the disorder.

“It’s a superpower that can make you do things,” said Brink. “Not only do equal to anybody else that doesn’t have it, but go beyond that.”

ADHD unlocked is available at Books and Company, Amazon, and John’s A. Brink’s website.
