Mask slipping - the best decision I never made. ADHD in women | Claire Thrift | TEDxSt Albans

NOTE FROM TED: Please do not look to this talk for health or diagnostic advice. This talk only represents the speaker's personal experiences and understanding of ADHD in women. TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: http://storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/t... Claire has been described as ‘a woman of incredible potential’ since the age of 18. Unfortunately, that potential was never realised and an incomplete degree and 17 short-lived jobs later, she hit a wall aged 40. At that age she was finally diagnosed with ADHD. Her talk shares how ADHD in girls and women presents very differently than it does in men and boys. She explains how her carefully cultivated mask fell off and how that was the best decision she never made! #ADHD #ADHDInWomen #Neurodivergent Claire heads up a podcast and consulting agency, working with Schools, Universities, and workplaces, running workshops to promote ADHD strategies to ensure inclusion and productivity. Her talk will focus on her personal and professional mission to educate others on the challenges and benefits of having neurodiverse friends and employees. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
