ADHD: A Thread of Threads
As someone with ADHD, I& #39;ve noticed that a lot of people only have a most basic understanding of ADHD and its effects, so I decided to compile a thread of various threads that I think do a good job explaining what it& #39;s like and how we manage it
If anyone I link in this thread feels uncomfortable with me adding you in, please dm me and let me know and I& #39;ll delete it for you
