63: "Everyone has ADHD" and Other Common Myths (Part 2 of 2)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This episode is part 2 of 2. We continue to bust the most commons myths about ADHD. Even if you listened to part 1, I highly recommend listening to part 2, as it includes the myth that hits you right in the feelings - "If you tell a kid about their ADHD, it will make them feel different." We talk about why parents believe this, and why it's actually false.
Please share this episode with your parent and/or teacher friends, so we can start reframing how people understand ADHD. (But make sure to send them part 1 first!)
