An opinion piece by our CEO Henry Shelford for LBC.
The article argues that ADHD is underdiagnosed, not overdiagnosed, countering recent claims that too many people are being diagnosed with the condition. It highlights that only a small percentage of individuals with ADHD receive an official diagnosis, with many others left undiagnosed despite clear struggles. Henry, an expert on ADHD, supports the view that ADHD is often overlooked, particularly in women, and stresses the importance of better diagnosis and support. The article also addresses the stigma around ADHD, emphasizing that it is not a disorder exploited for benefits, but one that requires more recognition to help individuals succeed in life.
