Inattentive ADHD & the Game of Life - Tues June 2, 7:00 - 8:30pm
Details
It is often said that if you have seen one person with ADHD, you have seen one person with ADHD. Yet, too frequently, people with ADHD seem to believe that others' ADHD impacts them in the same way. Some firmly believe ADHD is a disability, while others argue it is merely a difference, and still others are adamant that it is a superpower.
This presentation demonstrates how and why ADHD is very individual from the moment of birth onward. Case examples of two boys and two girls with ADHD will be highlighted, demonstrating how different their lives are, even though they each have a diagnosis of ADHD. Cynthia Hammer, MSW brings her social work training and her thirty plus years learning about ADHD to this revealing presentation.
Cynthia Hammer, MSW, was diagnosed with ADHD at age 49. She is the director of the non-profit, Inattentive ADHD Coalition (www.iadhd.org) and founder of the project to FINDtheADHDgirls.org. She believes that ADHD is a disability, but with knowledge, strategies, and determination we can transform our disability into a difference or even into something desirable.
Cynthia’s book, Living with Inattentive ADHD is available at Amazon or wherever you buy your books. All proceeds from this book go to the Inattentive ADHD Coalition.
