ADHD AWARENESS AFTERNOON: Beating ADHD's Low Moods
When life feels like a struggle or things go wrong low mood can begin to take hold. Ways that we recognise low mood include feeling down, flat or tearful. Being easily frustrated, feeling irritable, concentration problems, appetite or sleep problems are also signs of low mood.
“People with ADHD feel everything more vividly. When it comes to passion, joy, and curiosity, this is a good thing. When it comes to rejection, overwhelm, and anger, powerful emotions can be debilitating.” says Dr Ed Halliwell M.D. psychiatrist and world-renowned ADHD authority
ADDults with ADHD’s next ADHD Awareness Afternoon on SATURDAY 1st JUNE features Dr AMANDA MULLIN, Clinical Psychologist and Director of Mindworx Psychology talking about “BEATING LOW MOOD WHEN YOU HAVE ADHD”.

ADHD Not Just For Kids: Excellent Video Resource
Watch and learn. Recommended resource about Adult ADHD today. Useful information about ADHD across the life-span.
"ADHD - Not Just for Kids" debunks some of the ignorance surrounding this invisible condition as more and more adults are recognised as having ADHD. The documentary follows the personal journeys made by adults who were diagnosed with ADHD late in life.
It also challenges some of the most persistent "myths" surrounding ADHD, through interviews with some of the leading experts in the area and a look at the most recent research into the field.
Make yourself comfortable, set aside 45-50 minutes and watch. You won't be disappointed and you may want to share it to increase awareness of what ADHD really is for adults. By the way you might have to skip past some adverts at the start and part way through.
