Introduction to ADHD: Is it TikTok's fault??

It seems like everyone and their mother (literally) is getting diagnosed with ADHD these days! What is going on!?!

This talk will cover what ADHD is and what it isn't. I hope to also give you some talking points to use when your ADHD is challenged or dismissed either because "it's not a real thing" or "everyone is a little ADHD". We will also chat a little bit about how getting a diagnosis works and why there isn't a blood test or brain scan (yet) to diagnose ADHD.

This meeting will start with a 60-minute presentation on the topic and then we will open the floor to discussion with the group where we can talk about our experiences. My hope is that everyone will walk away with a better understanding of what a diagnosis of ADHD means and why we are seeing such an uptick in diagnosis.
