Healthy Life Recovery - is raising awareness of ADHD by providing the symptoms to watch for, myths and stigma, how it coexists with other disorders like anxiety, how it affects relationships and more. ADHD can impact an individual’s school performance, work, self-esteem, relationships, and more. Individuals who suffer from ADHD are more likely to develop a substance abuse disorder later on in life and are around three times more likely to attempt suicide than the general population, according to a study done in 2019 at Cambridge University. https://healthyliferecovery.com/adhd-awareness-month/
