Hey, this sneaks up on me every year since my diagnosis, that’s twice now. Thank goodness people email me about these things.
And yes, it is ADHD Awareness Week and I do have some resources to share with you. If you’re going to testify on behalf of the tribe, you might as well be prepared. You might want to read tomorrow’s post before you go out canvassing the neighborhood, spreading the word, as it were.
Anyway … following are three links you might want to check out in celebration of a week that is dedicated to us. Enjoy.
I was born in the city of Toronto in 1959, but moved when I was in my fourth year of life. I was raised and educated in a rural setting, growing up in a manner I like to refer to as free range. I live on the traditional lands of the Chippewas of Nawash in an area where my family history stretches back 6 or 7 generations and my First Nations friend's families go back hundreds of generations. I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 50 and have been both struggling with the new reality and using my discoveries to make my life better. I am a freelance writer and I write two blogs here at Psych Central, one about living with ADHD and one that is a daily positive affirmation that acts as an example of finding the good in as much of my life as I possibly can.
