I’m back with part two of this episode and this is where I go into the impact that this belief might have on us ADHDers and what we might struggle with. This episode looks at what we can do to start dismantling these ideas in all of us. 

Challenges for ADHD:

• Writing struggles 
• Speaking expectation
• Intuitive intuition
• Attention span for reading and writing 
• Black ppl getting more severe diagnosis for mental illness anyway 
• Schools testing
• Black students seen as less intelligent 
• We have many skills and they aren’t recognised

What I’ve learned:

• figure out which things need to be written down and come up with alternative ways to document
• work to recognize the contributions and skills that every person brings to the organization 
• make sure anything written can be clearly understood
• Ask yourself: How are you perpetuating/internalised this belief? How are you working to recognise the different contributions and skills of ppl you work with, in your family and supporting growth in those areas?
