ADDults with ADHD

At ADDults with ADHD our vision is to create an Australian community that fully supports, understands This page provides ADHD information made by Australians.

ABOUT this PAGE
To live and thrive with ADHD, self education is crucial. There is much content - but not all of it is from good or 'evidence- based' sources. And many with ADHD find it hard understand or who to follow. Also material from well-regarded sources. It's a hub for practical, easy-to-understand ADHD information such as: ARTICLES, VIDEOS, SELF-HELP RESOURCES, MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES and NEWS and HUMOR from Australia & o/seas. ABOUT Us
We're a not-for-profit, volunteer run organisation established in 1995 to address the needs of adults with ADHD and related conditions, and their families. We're a registered charity with Deductible Gift Recipient status. As far as we know we're the only organisation specifically supporting adults with ADHD in Australia. Our members include health care professionals such as psychiatrists, psychologists, counsellors, educators and researchers, people impacted by ADHD and their loved ones or partners. We're committed to reducing the STIGMA associated with ADHD and dispelling the MYTHS and MISINFORMATION that have been prominent in the media and community for many years. We're on the look out for opportunities to provide education about and awareness of adult ADHD in the media, government and health sectors based on research and clinical best practice.
