8 little known truths about ADHD everyone should know:
1. ADHD isn't a deficit of attention—it's a dysregulation of it
People with ADHD don't lack attention.
They struggle to control what they pay attention to & when.
This is why they can hyperfocus for hours on things they love…
& completely ignore everything else.
