Great to open the The Neurodiversity Charity ADHD Foundation conference today. We are making leaps and bounds in ending the stigma around #ADHD and, with our APPG we are holding the Government to account, pushing for real change in diagnosis and treatment. #ADHDFoundation ADHD Action

It’s so disheartening to see this #antiscience rhetoric being pushed publicly by prominent psychologists. Medication saves many lives, including my own. This damaging message is at best stigmatising and hurtful for those with #ADHD, #depression, etc...and at worst lethal.

The belief that ADHD isn’t real—or that people can simply rally to overcome it—undermines the mental and physical well-being of millions bit.ly/2r4Sic1

At #ADHDAction we are passionate about teachers and other professionals being trained to spot signs of #ADHD, so there is less chance of an ADHDer slipping through into adulthood without a diagnosis.

Fantastic #ADHDAwareness raising from the brilliant Rory Bremner 💙🇺🇦. We have strengths and challenges with #ADHD, support us and help us to realise our potential! Early diagnosis is critical. Well done, Rory, spot on. #ADHDAction.

We’ve found: - Patients on waiting lists for up to five years after being referred. - 70% of Trusts in England with an adult ADHD service had waits of at least a year. - Charities say backlog is risking lives The Neurodiversity Charity ADHD Foundation | ADHD Action | Scott McGhee | Michelle Beckett
