Our ADHD Community
We connected with our ADHD community and asked about their ADHD diagnosis journey, their careers, what they love about their unique brains, and some advice on the things they find most challenging.
My ADHD diagnosis
Being diagnosed with ADHD is in a way, finding a long-lost key 🗝️ that unlocks some of the mysteries of who you are.
Some answers are explained, which can bring on a feeling of understanding and on some level, explanations.
But with that discovery comes a wave of emotions—a mix of frustration, anger, and sorrow. 😖😠😔
The good news is that, within this rollercoaster of emotions lies a glimmer of hope. 🌈
ADHD isn't the end of the road - it's the start of a new journey full of unique strengths and endless possibilities. 💛
We know this for a fact! ☀️
