This is the best elevator speech about ADHD that I ever read or heard…

To those who have children that are neurodivergent and say they "don't want to limit them by putting labels on them….

First, let me clarify. “Mess” is “a situation or state of affairs that is confused or full of difficulties.” …….

Unless we have a way to know that the clinician we see for a diagnosis is an expert, we should ask if they will use DIVA 5 to make the diagnosis of our adult ADHD.

I made a commitment to mail 10 letters and am proud that they are ready to be mailed on October 1, the start of ADHD Awareness Month.  I found addresses for elementary schools in Tacoma by searching on the web.

Even though we know untreated ADHD results in major psychiatric morbidity, social, educational and occupational impairment, and increased mortality, too many children still fall through the cracks.

If you read last week’s blog, you know I hunt for web misinformation about ADHD. Sometimes I wonder if I am distracted, going down rabbit holes that don’t relate to my mission of creating awareness about Inattentive ADHD.

Is the ADHD World getting turned upside down? In the past month, I heard two prominent psychologists stress the importance of medicine to treat ADHD while a psychiatrist’s website promotes treating ADHD without medication. This is shocking.

I have to wonder why 17 years have passed with little additional research on Inattentive ADHD.

It bothers me when I hear helping professionals declare, “People with ADHD don’t need to be fixed…”

Men with Inattentive ADHD don’t get enough notice or mention. I want to change that by writing an article about men with Inattentive ADHD and getting it published. But first I need to learn what life has been like for these men.

My final gripe (maybe) is the definition of ADHD which says we have a delayed neurodevelopmental condition…
