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.

Darcy Michael is a comedian who has dominated comedy for 15 years. An accomplished actor, Darcy Michael has appeared in TV shows & films such as "Legends of Tomorrow," "RapturePalooza," "Lucifer," and "The Twilight Zone." After starring opposite Dave Foley in CTV's "Spun Out" for two seasons, Darcy followed up his early television success with his 2016 comedy album "Family Highs," which debuted at #1 on iTunes, Google Play, and Amazon. His 2018 special produced by Just for Laughs, "Darcy Michael Goes to Church," was called "the queer stand-up special you've been waiting for" by Now Magazine. Darcy has been nominated for two Canadian Comedy Awards and named a finalist in the SiriusXM Top Comic Competition and NBC's Stand Up for Diversity show. Pegged by the Montreal Gazette as one of their favorites at the Just for Laughs Festival - he has gone on to appear at the prestigious festival over ten times.
