#7. This post is a part of a series where people answer my anonymous survey question. If you have ADHD but haven’t gone public with it, what would it take to you go public with ADHD?
There are risks and rewards for going public with ADHD AND for staying hidden in the ADHD closet. See this post for context on the series.
“More widespread acceptance and understanding of the condition. Because it centers on the wiring and morphology of the human brain, there is a good deal about ADD and ADHD that is not understood. My understanding is that certain parts of the brain look very different under MRI scans between people with and ADD and people who do not. IF this fact alone were better known, it might be easier to gain acceptance of the condition.”
