Today we’re talking with Adrina and Marissa, the co-founders of Black Girl ADHD. We discuss their personal experiences with ADHD, including their journey to diagnosis, how understanding themselves on a deeper level has improved their lives, and the stigma and lack of awareness about ADHD, especially in the black community. They emphasize the importance of seeking answers - not to make excuses, but to build on your toolbox of just surviving and not only surviving but thriving through your diagnosis, understanding that there is nothing wrong with having ADHD, and using it as a superpower.
