We still see negative reporting on ADHD in the news and see unknown doctors spouting rubbish about the existence of this neuro developmental condition so it is nice to see articles now tackling the subject of women and ADHD.
We’re attending the Conference today at the AAC Liverpool. We heard an inspirational talk from Dr Ned Hallowell so of course we took the opportunity for a photo with both Dr Hallowell and Tony Lloyd (CEO, ADHD Foundation).
Looking forwards to more interesting talks throughout the day.
Clair was on BBC Radio Stoke last night talking about the effects of ADHD, on the Stuart Georges’s Show… where they were discussing whether ADHD is real, after Peter Hitchens wrote in the Mail on Sunday (27/1/19] about his doubts over the conditions existence.
Having read what Peter Hitchens wrote, I have to say it’s so disheartening that so many people still feel able to write so negatively about ADHD without doing the slightest bit of research. They have no knowledge and no personal experience but feel they can very publicly deny it’s existence.
We would have let you all know sooner about Clair’s radio debut but the radio but the station only contacted Clair half an hour before they wanted her to talk. She did brilliantly and we’re really proud of her.
