ADHD research reveals the effects of late diagnosis in women and gender-diverse individuals.
The ADHD Community Healing Project is an intersectional, creative, intellectual, and spiritual collaboration dedicated to building a supportive and inclusive community for women and gender-diverse individuals living with ADHD. It brings together community members, including researchers, to explore profound questions about who we are, how we want to be, and how we can be.
While recognising our common features, the project also makes space for our individual experiences, expressions, and goals. The aim is not to find a 'solution' to 'ADHD,' but to embrace ADHD as a starting point for broader discussions about the complexity of us as humans. By understanding how we can go from hiding to thriving, we seek to support a better world for all.
The project was conceived by Dr Oli Meredith, the Chief investigative Officer of the project: Hiding or Thriving, the lived experiences of women and gender diverse people with ADHD.
The ADHD Community Healing Project is a collective space where community talent, creativity, and collaboration come together to tell stories in new and healing ways. This project was created in response to how often immense talent gets stuck—not due to lack of ability, but because of lack of community where complementary skills from each other can bring ideas to life.
We create podcasts, videos, art, and more—together. Our goal is to develop new ways of understanding ADHD, beyond deficit language, by sharing stories that help people from all walks of life unmask, reconnect, and reframe. The ADHD Community Healing Project challenges isolation and celebrates the synergy of working as a community.
