“ADHD rarely gets called ADHD first. It gets called something else: defiant, lazy, too much, or a number of other diagnoses.”

For Black children and adults, ADHD symptoms are sometimes mistaken for behavior problems, personality traits, or a lack of effort. The result can be years of missed opportunities for diagnosis, treatment, and support.

In this Attention Matters podcast, Diane Miller, PsyD, MEd, explores why ADHD is often overlooked in the Black community, how those experiences differ for men and women, and why understanding and community support matter.

🎧 Listen to the conversation and learn how recognizing ADHD can change the way someone understands their past and approaches their future.

ADHD doesn't stop affecting your brain when it's time for intimacy.

Distraction, difficulty shifting from one activity to another, and trouble connecting with your body can all affect sexual experiences and relationships. Yet sexuality is one aspect of ADHD that often goes undiscussed.

We're opening the conversation about how ADHD can affect sexual desire, satisfaction, and intimacy—and why understanding those connections matters.

💙 Healthy intimacy is part of overall well-being, and it's okay to ask for support.
