Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
The ADHD Sleep Book
Heather Darwall-Smith · 2026
78/100
👍 Worth It
Darwall-Smith's combination of clinical expertise and lived experience fills a real gap — generic sleep advice consistently fails people with ADHD, and this book explains exactly why and offers tailored strategies instead. The independent critical record is thin given how recently it was published, but the professional endorsements are credible and the premise is sound. A genuinely useful tool for a population that is badly underserved by mainstream sleep literature.
