Day 3 of #NationalADHDAwarenessMonth is all about the secrets of the #ADHD brain. This article is so validating to me and explains so much! I was always told that I wasn't trying hard enough, wasn't good enough, or not working up to my potential, or that if I just put in a little more effort I could do so much more, and that still haunts me today, almost thirty years after leaving school. I feel like this is an article that the entire world needs to read! https://www.additudemag.com/secrets-of-the-adhd-brain/

@technolass I hate the phrase "not working up to your potential" and I have never and will never use it with my students! People said it about me and it always just made me feel so small and stupid. And like why bother even trying.
