Wondering how to survive & thrive with a 🐒 brain?
💡 STEP 1. Get A Good Map - Learn About ADHD
Step 1.4: CONNECT with your community, your fellow travelers! Get with the national organizations devoted to ADHD: CHADD - Children & Adults with ADD at CHADD.org; ADDA - the Attention Deficit Disorder Association at add.org; online support communities, like the ones at AdditudeMag.com. Search 'adult adhd discussion' or 'adult adhd forum' - you may be pleasantly surprised at who all is out there.
💡 CHADD deserves special mention – CHADD chapters in many cities have in-person peer support groups (none here in beautiful Ventura County, tho 🙁). Plus, the annual CHADD conference is nothing short of AMAZING! Researchers, clinicians, educators, parents of kids with ADHD, people with ADHD (many of us fit multiple categories) – it’s a revelation to get to be with your tribe. I’ve had wonderful experiences. This year, the conference will be in St. Louis, November 8-11.
