"The clinical research psychologist who created the concept of HSP and first wrote about it, Elaine Aron, based the HSP criteria on family members who have since been diagnosed with autism"

"If one looks closely at the description of a Highly Sensitive Person it matches the criteria for autism almost word for word"

As #ADHD is trending, I'd like everyone to know:

🧠 You don't need to be visibly hyperactive to have ADHD (#ADHDinattentive)
🧠 Girls/women have ADHD
(#ADHDwomen)
🧠 Adults have ADHD (#AdultADHD)
🧠 ~80% of adults with ADHD don't know they have it
🧠 There are lots of #ADHDmyths 🧠 You can have #ADHD and do well at school, have a degree, a job, a relationship & a family
🧠 You don't outgrow ADHD
🧠 There's no cure for ADHD
🧠 Undiagnosed/untreated ADHD can have serious consequences
🧠 ADHD meds decrease the risk of drug abuse
🧠 ADHD is highly genetic

#HateToDisappointYouBut ADHD is likely not what you think it is. I'm saying this because most people think #ADHD is just hyperactive, naughty little boys, and it couldn't be more wrong. It affects life in so many ways. If you know people with it, please find out what it's about. Find more info & ADHD people: #ADHDinattentive #ADHDmyths
