ADHD Awareness Month
The month of October is designated as ADHD Awareness Month, and this year's theme is "Awareness is Key." This purpose of this annual observance is to provide information and resources that can empower those with ADHD, helping them to thrive. The Attention Deficit Disorder Association, in collaboration with Children and Adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, ADHD Coaches Organization and ADDitute magazine, created the ADHD Awareness Month website. The website offers resources created by ADHD experts that answer common questions and provide insight regarding aspects of living with ADHD while also busting some commonly believed ADHD myths. The site also features ADHD-related art, memes, and personal stories in addition to a self-screening tool developed by the World Health Organization. #ADHDawareness #ADHDsupport #MovingForwardWithADHD
Below is the self-reported lifetime history of ADHD among HealthStreet members by self-reported age, race, and sex.
