What is ADHD? 🤔

ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects attention, concentration, focus, impulsivity and hyperactivity.

For some, common signs of ADHD can mean being easily distracted, forgetful or restless; for others, it can be struggling with organisation, managing time or regulating emotions.

With October being Black History Month, we wanted to take the time to highlight the experiences of black individuals when seeking healthcare in the UK.

At Oxford ADHD & Autism Centre, we know that trust in healthcare begins with feeling seen, understood and treated with dignity. We strive to understand the unique challenges faced by every one of our patients to offer them the most affirming and personalised care we can.

Raising awareness of racial bias is one of the ways we can work towards greater education on changes that must be made for an equitable future.

Think ADHD is just laziness?
While most people can "get the job done", someone with ADHD may feel stuck and unable to start. This is not a lack of willpower but a neurological challenge. The good news is that with proven strategies, such as working through tasks with a friend, anyone with ADHD can get things done.
