Should You Be Assessed For ADHD? with Dr Stephen Humphries - Harley Therapy

According to research, about 4% of the population has ADHD in adulthood, and less than 1% of this is diagnosed.

The symptoms of ADHD in adults and children can be quite different. In adulthood if you have ADHD, you may feel that you have always been a little different, you might be described as a 'daydreamer' or you might rely on stress to get things done.

How ADHD Treatment Is Not ADHD Friendly

I wasn't sure if I was going to share this because it's very raw and personal, but I decided it's important to. If you resonate, comment. Share. Let's let others with ADHD know they're not alone in this struggle and help mental health professionals understand what we go through. Let's make some change.

What Happened When I Stopped Taking My Medication

As much as my meds help me, it’s a battle to remember to do all the things I need to do to be able to take them: sign up for health insurance, pay my bill, make a doctor appointment, GO to that appointment, get my prescription, find a pharmacy that can fill it, remember to pick it up before it closes, remember to bring my ID so they’ll let me...

So when I miss a step and find myself without my meds, it’s easy to wonder...are they really necessary?

This is what happened when I forgot to pay my health insurance, stopped taking my medication for two weeks and tried to learn how to live without it.

Please share -- because the stigma is real, and no one should have to feel ashamed for getting the treatment they need just because their disorder is mental rather than physical, invisible rather than obvious.

Mental health is just as important as physical health, and it’s time we acknowledge that.

*NOTE* -- I do not recommend going off medication without a doctor's supervision. A medical professional should be accessible to troubleshoot problems. If you can't reach your doctor, talk to a pharmacist.

Why Stimulant Medication Helps ADHD -- and How Stigma Can Hurt

I decided to ask Dr. Carolyn Lentzch-Parcells (www.gtw-health.com) to come talk about stimulant medication -- and help bust some of the stigma that keeps people from treating their ADHD.

ADHD: Why Do We Hold Ourselves to Neurotypical Standards?

Being more neurotypical does not equal being more valuable. We need to stop telling ourselves (and others) that it does.

Quotes from the Comments:

"Having ADHD feels like working twice as hard just to do half as much as everyone else." - Alan the Dinosaur

"...my husband says, "You're playing on hard mode." He says, "don't compare yourself to others because you have to play on hard mode and they might be on standard settings... Makes me feel better about myself. That I'm not flawed, my life is just on hard mode, and I'm doing doing the best I can." - Caitlyn O'Sullivan

"I’m often reminded of this one comic about the educational system. There’s a variety of animals standing in a line, a songbird, a monkey, a penguin, an elephant, a fish in a bowl, a seal, and a dog. Across from them is a man who tells them: - “For a fair selection everyone has to take the same exam: please climb that tree” - Gulf Giggle Animations
