Why is a generation of women only now discovering they have ADHD? (Spoiler: misogyny). A writer examines the cost of living with undiagnosed ADHD in a reported memoir about the girls that medical science ignored.

“A fascinating analysis of who gets left out of ADHD research and a rallying cry to a ‘big chaotic sisterhood’ of neurodivergent girls finding answers later in life.”—
USA Today

When Carla Ciccone is diagnosed with ADHD at thirty-nine—an event brought on by the demands of early motherhood—it flips the script on the story of her life. After years of self-blame and sabotage, it turns out that her most reviled traits aren’t deep personality flaws, but symptoms of an undiagnosed disorder. And as she goes from being her own biggest hater to something a bit more compassionate, she notices the growing community of women in the same situation.

Weaving her personal story into a broader investigation of the rise in ADHD diagnoses, Carla draws on scientific research and expert interviews as she looks back on the classrooms of the 1990s, where “ADD” was reserved for hyperactive white boys and the girls learned to mask their differences. She examines the hormonal upheavals of adolescence and their unique effects on neurochemistry and later charts her chaotic entrance into motherhood. She also reflects on the history of women’s mental healthcare and the pressure put on us to perform our genders in a certain way. Throughout, Carla seeks to understand the ramifications of an ignored mental disorder on an entire generation—the nowhere girls.

With humor, depth and detailed reporting, 
Nowhere Girl explores the cultural impact of ADHD on girls and women and offers a path forward for reclaiming our narratives, forgiving ourselves and parenting our children (and reparenting ourselves) with the softness we didn’t receive.

Good Relief, But a Little Pricey
I don’t usually write reviews, but I felt like this cream deserved one. I’ve tried so many products for dry, itchy eczema patches, and most either felt greasy, burned when applied, or just didn’t do much. Puriya has been such a refreshing change. The texture is smooth, it absorbs quickly without leaving that sticky feeling, and within a couple of days my skin felt calmer and the redness started to fade. What I really like is how versatile it is. I’ve used it on flare-ups, random dry spots, and even my hands when they get irritated in the summer. It feels gentle but still effective, and I don’t need to use a ton for it to work. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is the price. It’s a little on the higher side for the amount you get. I also find myself reapplying a bit more often than I’d like. But overall, it’s one of the better creams I’ve tried, and I’ll definitely keep using it.

Not good for eczema
This cream shouldn't be described as an eczema cream. Eczema is usually colonized by s. aureus bacteria, and you need a powerful anti-bacterial substance in your skin cream in order to combat it. Neem oil or manuka honey both have strong anti-bacterial effects, and I recommend getting a cream with one of those ingredients if you have eczema. This Puriya cream is helpful for moisturizing dry skin to prevent eczema. However, it won't help to stop eczema once you've got it. That said, customer service was very helpful and gave me a refund for the product after I complained.

Very nice and moisturizing on the skin but didn't do much repairing. Overly expensive for nothing.

Calm Cream for Redness
This naturally plant based eczema cream is really calming on my skin, and it feels lovely with no irritation from using it. The texture color was kinda new to me due to the color of how it looked when I opened it (you really can't tell it's cream),but It didn't bother me anymore after I started applying it on my skin and started smelling the loving aroma it had to it. It resembled that of a calming Shea Cocoa butter mixed with a hint of fresh oats. unfortunately it didn't last long though(1-2 minutes after applying). Since using this cream my skin has been fully moisturized and calmed with no itching. Now though my skin gets irritated occasionally due to changing weather, I can't fully say it helps clear up my flare-ups entirely. What I can say is that for me since applying this on my red spot areas, it has kept the itch at bay considerably and made the skin smooth to boot. So I will continue using this cream and hopefully through time it will fully clear up.
