This is part of a series focused on conversations with women with ADHD who had delayed diagnosis in life.
On International Women's Day, I spoke to three women with ADHD and asked them to tell me their ADHD story (when they were diagnosed and what ADHD was like for them) and how knowing they have ADHD changed their outlook on life.
Connie was diagnosed just last month at the age of 26 with combined ADHD and keen to smash the stigma that we all experience around ADHD. She spends her days working with gorgeous dogs (she's a dog walker).
Annie was diagnosed at the age of 19 after nearly failing out of her first semester of college, and is currently focused on raising her child and increasing awareness on anxiety and ADHD in girls and women.
Danielle was diagnosed at the age of 37 with ADHD and she also has dyslexia, and advocates for neurodiversity, mental health and art and wellbeing through her art practice so more people will understand eventually.
