Raise your hand if you have ADHD. If your hand is up, you'll probably have an easier time listening to this episode. If you've ever struggled to understand ADHD, you'll get to experience it from the inside. Nathaniel, Jason, and Donald get some help from the second generation of Harder Than Healing: Vince, Davon, and Donnie – kids who get ADHD, because they live it. Together, we explore what ADHD is, ADHD superpowers, ADHD kryptonite, and the common thread between neurodiversity, Veterans, and artists.
Harder Than Healing is produced in partnership with All Points North. https://apn.com/

Bridging the Gap:
Sick call is a phrase used in the military to explain when you go to the doctor, and it generally happens at a certain time of the day but can also be used as a general phrase for people who are seeking medical attention. Within the military's culture, where "suck it up" and "pull yourself up by the bootstrap" are doctrine, going to sick call could be detrimental to your career.
Nathaniel Ellison, in partnership with University of Denver's Learning Effectiveness Program, hosts an annual ADHD conference called LEP ADDventure Conference https://studentaffairs.du.edu/learningeffectiveness/lep-addventure-conference
