Ndubuisi 'Andy' Egwim talks about ADHD as a disabling condition that causes real trauma, not just a productivity quirk. He urges people who suspect they have it to get diagnosed, talk to others, and stop isolating. Aligning your life to how your brain actually works changes everything.
I think we live in a world where even though ADHD and autism is becoming a much more significant part of day to day conversation, there's still so much stigma around it and so much judgment and, and it can be a really difficult space to be a part of sometimes. But ADHD is a disability. It significantly affects people's lives. It's a really difficult thing to live with and I know I'm all happy and giddy and I'm just like, oh, I've got adhd. But it is hard. Has caused significant trauma and, and disability in my life and I'm not going to be the only one that experiences that. So if you feel like you have ADHD and you want to look into that, do it. Talk to people, reach out. Even if you want to reach out to me and ask things about it, then 100% you should because you know you're not alone. And, and learning to live a life that's cohesive with what your brain needs, it makes it a lot easier.
