It is my contention that Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a corrupt phrase and name. It is a collection of prejudices. Its very existence has prevented scores of people from understanding the truth about themselves, namely that they have adhd.
The stories of Fidgety Phillip and Johnny head-in-air were written by Heinrich Hoffman in the mid-19th century. Hoffman was a Physician and Psychiatrist professionally but is best remembered for his illustrated children's stories called Struwwelpeter.
I'm don't feel great about the language we currently use to describe and denote those of us who have a neurological difference.
Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) is still not widely known and is even more poorly understood but, in my clinical experience, globally experienced by those of us who have adhd.
I love this one, because in two short sentences, the author conveys a sense of some of the ways—there are many more—in which those of us with adhd experience sensory/perceptual overwhelm that might be surprising to neurotypical readers.
