My mom sent me this video this week to help me see how she was able to understand a family member. As a teacher, I have the privledge to meet a lot of people everyday. People with potential, people with incredible gifts, and people who either struggle with ADHD or who are a friend or love someone with ADHD. I am not posting this with "one person" or family in mind. I am posting this video, for all my students of the past twenty-plus years and my friends and family who are reaching their potential everyday, with ADHD. I thought some of what Jessica shared would be helpful. It is just over fifteen minutes.

ADHD isn't ... and what it is ...
"You are not weird. You are not stupid. You do not need to try harder. You are not a failed version of normal. You are different. You are beautiful. And you are not alone." - Jessican McCabe (about 16 minutes)
