This mini episode is part of a mid-series-mini-series created for ADHD Awareness Month 2024. This October's theme is 'Awareness is Key', so I'm sharing the 'key' pieces of ADHD awareness the ADHDAF Community need the world to know.

Enormous thanks to Jill and Gill for volunteering their voices, for all of their support and for being compassionate to how ADHD presents in me - double booking what should have been one to ones with each of them! :)

Trigger warning: Contains swearing and mentions of sensitive subject matter some may find triggering; mental health struggles, ableism, cancer, long term health conditions, suicide and premature death.

We invite you to join us online Friday 25th Oct for the THIRD ANNUAL ADHDAF DAY! In which we paint the world leopard print to raise ADHD Awareness. Simply wear at least one leopard print item on 25/10/24 to stand in solidarity with the leopard print army and post a selfie or video on your socials sharing the special message you want the world to know about ADHD, then tag @adhdafpodcast and #ADHDAFDay and I will reshare your messages for the world to see and hear us at a time of ADHD diagnosis crisis and medication shortages.

PLEASE SHARE this episode and write a review/ hit those stars, because doing so means these episodes will spread far and wide. Each one contains important information that society NEEDS to know about ADHD and from the very people whose voices have gone unheard for too long!

Let's join forces this ADHD Awareness month. LIVES DEPEND ON IT.

Myself and the Leopard Print Army thank you for your support!
