From neurodivergent comedian Darcy Michael, a hilarious memoir with a message about living with adult ADHD

What if ADHD isn't a disorder to overcome, but a superpower that makes you funnier, more creative, and more resilient? In Attention Seeker, comedian and card-carrying adult with ADHD Darcy Michael offers a fresh perspective on getting through the daily struggles that confront those on the neurofabulous end of the spectrum.

Darcy takes readers on a humorous-yet-heartfelt journey as he relates stories of growing up gay, getting married, and finding a career in comedy, all while navigating life with an attention-addled brain. From his early acting days on Spun Out to finding fame (and love) on the internet, Darcy shares all the dirty details (it's NSFW, folks!) of how ADHD has shaped his identity, his relationships, and his work.

Peppered with asides from Darcy's long-suffering husband Jer, advice for ADHDers both silly and serious, and words of wisdom from Yuma Dog herself, this laugh-out-loud guide is essential reading for anyone unpacking what ADHD means for them-or anyone who just wants to giggle

Reviews for Attention Seeker: A Neurodivergent Comedian's Guide to Thriving with ADHD

""My neurodivergent brain needed a book like this. Through laughter, and some tears, Darcy Michael’s Attention Seeker is a roadmap on how to live your best life with ADHD. Embrace it, honey."" —Jonathan Van Ness, comedian and television personality “Dear reader, it took many reminders and follow up reminders to get me to write this endorsement of Darcy Michael’s book, because guess who else is neurodivergent? Me, that’s who! Darcy tells the tale of the struggles and triumphs in his life with humor and humanity. If you’re careful though, you can avoid the humanity and just enjoy the humor.” —Dave Foley, actor and comedian “How does someone with ADHD finish a book? Especially one that is so impressive, touching and funny. This glimpse into Darcy and Jer’s marriage (and life) reveals Darcy to be the playful genius that so many have come to love. And this brilliant book is a user’s guide to how to live with joy whether you have ADHD or not.” —Bruce McCulloch, actor and comedian “Darcy is one of the funniest people I've ever met—being in his presence is always a joy. This book is like being in his company, but with the added bonus of being able to put it down.” —Daniel Sloss, comedian
