READ THIS BOOK!

Awareness around ADHD and neurodiversity is growing rapidly, with diagnoses increasing and many more recognising symptoms without formal diagnosis. But when it comes to sleep, it is common to spread the same advice – go to bed earlier, wind down, cut screen time – without considering how sleep affects the neurodiergent mind differently.

In The ADHD Sleep Book, accredited therapist and sleep specialist, Heather Darwall-Smith will guide you through sleep advice tailored for your unique brain. Through relatable scenarios and practical interventions, this book help you understand:

- Why sleep deprivation hits people with ADHD so hard.
- Why traditional sleep advice fails neurodivergent minds.
- How to create a realistic sleep routine and bedtime system that actually works for your brain.


Rather than forcing yourself into rigid schedules that don’t fit, this book shows you how to work with your natural rhythms, reduce sleep anxiety and build sustainable habits for better rest. Supportive, validating and practical, The ADHD Sleep Book will help you feel understood, empowered and equipped to make realistic changes, so you can finally get the sleep you need.

About Heather Darwall-Smith

Heather Darwall-Smith is a UKCP accredited psychotherapist and sleep specialist who works with individuals with ADHD and sleep disorders, bridging the gap between mental health and sleep medicine. Heather was diagnosed late in life with ADHD herself – which meant she could join up the dots that others hadn’t. Determined to understand why sleep is so uniquely difficult for neurodiverse minds, she’s spent years combining scientific research with therapeutic insight. She knows first-hand what it’s like to live with a disco ball of a brain that refuses to switch off, especially at night. This blend of professional expertise and personal experience allows her to speak with both authority and deep empathy.
