Adult ADD or ADHD in the UK
Alison Powell read an article about Adult ADHD a year ago, and thought it sounded like her. She sought medical care -and was in fact diagnosed with the condition. She is now actively working to improve knowledge and awareness about the condition in the UK.
Her story was recently written up in the ‘South Wales Argus’, and you can read the article here.
As an active Adult ADHD advocate, Alison is appearing on ‘This Morning’ on TV (ITV, to be precise) at 10:30 am (on July 24th) to discuss Adult ADD/ADHD.
While there are some experts to help with Adult ADHD in the UK, the NHS help may be ‘patchy’.
Alison has recently joined ADHD World - a social network for people with ADD/ADHD. You can view her profile page here. She, and some other residents of the UK, have started an ADHD UK Discussion Group.
Membership in ADHD World is free - and if you want to discuss any issues of ADD or ADHD in the UK (in kids or adults), just join ADHD World here, and then join the ADHD UK group, and share your questions or comments. You’ll be connecting with some ‘active advocates’.
Keep up the great work in the UK!
Best,
Dr. Kenny
