What do you think about when you hear ADHD, and what kind of emotions or attitudes does it bring up?
ADHD has been a topic of great controversy for decades among doctors, teachers, parents, and the public.
People with ADHD are stigmatized, are put down, do exceptional things but never are able to take pride in them, and are always willing to help others but they will never even consider asking others for help.
ADHD2 is on a mission to redefine ADHD and educate, empower and inspire those who have ADHD, those who think they may have ADHD, and those who love someone for ADHD.
And you don't have to look far for that inspiration. ADHD2 founder Dr. Devang Patel made it all the way to and through medical school without knowing he had it!
