Rationing diagnoses- limiting the number of people diagnosed with ADHD to control the demand. So, if we ignore the people who are having the symptoms, they will go away. Thoughts?

Emotional intelligence and impact of self on others. This story always makes me do a sense check and remember that, whatever chaos my mind is experiencing, I always should try to take a moment to look at my actions. What may be a flighty comment or a brief interaction to one person can mean a lot more on the recieving end.

Rejection sensitivity - previously known as oversensitive, high maintenance, fragile. Its a really profound challenge as it affects so many types of interactions, family, friends, work and our relationships. I am really interested in exploring this further with you all.

Chasing that Dopamine, or hyper focus and mindfulness? Hobbies and ADHD

Responding to the documentary, Professor Subodh Dave, President of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, commented:

“The way we speak about neurodevelopmental conditions really matters. It can fuel harmful stigma experienced by people living with the condition and risk discouraging people from seeking the support and treatment they need.

"While we understand individuals may have their own opinions about the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD, the College takes an evidence-based approach. Research suggests 3 to 5% of the population have ADHD, indicating that it is still under-recognised, under-diagnosed and under-treated in the UK.'

The documentary has polarised the population, and it seems a lot more people are talking about ADHD. So maybe something good can come of it.
