About this listen
THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
'Insightful and compassionate. This will help a lot of people' Matt Haig
'One of the most complete and moving accounts I've ever read... On behalf of all of us who grope toward understanding, thank you, Mr Partridge; thank you, thank you, thank you.' Edward Hallowell, MD
'Alex is rich, successful and an entertaining and concise communicator. Alex is also very ADHD. You want to read this book for all these reasons. It helps that it is short.' Kate Spicer
'Truly life changing. The perfect antidote for shame' Samantha Hiew PhD, founder of ADHD Girls
'A powerhouse of a book. Deeply validating' Rich and Roxanne Pink (ADHD Love)
'Thank you, Alex, for making us feel seen, heard and celebrated!' Martine McCutcheon
FROM THE HOST OF THE GLOBALLY ACCLAIMED 'ADHD CHATTER' PODCAST
Aged just 21, Alex Partridge founded UNILAD and LADBible, social news sites which now have a following of 100 million people around the globe. A legal case over ownership in 2017 tipped him over the edge of the cliff into alcoholism, triggering years of mental health issues until, aged 34, he was diagnosed with ADHD.
Now it all makes sense.
In his chart-topping podcast, ADHD Chatter, Alex has spoken to dozens of experts on ADHD and related conditions in a bid to understand and improve outcomes for the neurodiverse population - and this groundbreaking book brings them all together, for the first time, in one place.
A blend of lived experience and expert insight, this deep dive into ADHD has the power to change your life. If you've ever wondered why you can't remember those critical appointments, how you can be hyper-focused one minute and down a YouTube rabbit-hole 30 seconds later, or why do people walk so slowly? then this relatable and unashamedly honest book is for you.
Written with Alex's trademark raw vulnerability, Now It All Makes Sense distils the essence of all the most important need-to-knows, from parenting with (and for) ADHD, to managing your mental health, your finances and even your shopping list. Most importantly it celebrates the opportunities and strengths, unique skillsets and positive traits of ADHD to remind you that you are NOT broken - and you are enough.

THANK YOU
It felt like Alex had climbed into my brain and told my own story at points.
I finally felt heard and understood and not alone. I sobbed from the recognition of it all, and the knowledge that I am not just some over emotional, lazy weirdo with crazy issues and ideas who can never follow through with things.
It has given me so much insight, and ideas that I will be using to help myself.
I just need to find a way to get my partner to be open to listening to or reading this book so they can better understand me (they don't believe in ADHD) but I feel if they read/listened to this book they would see so much of me they would no longer be able to deny it, and we could make our relationship so much better for both us and our child (who likely has ADHD themself).
Thank you Alex, from the bottom of my heart.

Like a light bulb switching on
The book is a layman’s terms way of looking at ADHD its its extraordinary affects on the lives of those with it.
It’s made realise I am more than enough and I always was.

The epitome of authenticity and ADHD!
Having known, worked, played, lived, loved (and lost) people with ADHD, this book is a must read for anyone that wants to further understand themselves, or those they care about who are neurodivergent. 💙

Everything I needed to hear
Now it all makes sense! It really does, shared with my NT husband and my 17yo daughter, hoping it will all make sense to them too!

Now it really does make sense
Alex has the strength to tell his own story and combine it with all the knowledge gained from his podcast interviews with ADHD experts
