As always, we’ve been working hard to provide adults with ADHD with the knowledge and resources to improve their lives.

But on top of all that’s available for free on our website, we’ve revamped our membership program. It has a new name: ADDA+.

Why Did We Upgrade ADDA+?

Talking with people is good.

Talking with someone who “gets it” is great.

It makes a world of difference when you can share what’s happening in your life with someone who understands exactly what you mean.

When you join one of our virtual support groups – you’re in a 100% inclusive, trust-filled space where you can be yourself.

There is power in shared experience. That’s why we created our ADDA+ Support Groups – and we bet there’s one that would be an excellent fit for you.

You know the symptoms

As an adult with ADHD, you know the symptoms. You’re inattentive and distractible. You have trouble starting tasks, lack follow through and procrastinate. You struggle to control your emotions and you can’t get organized.

And the consequences

You know the consequences of adult ADHD all too well… poor job performance, marital difficulties, financial struggles and more (so much more).

But the worst thing is, you’re alone

But the worst thing about adult ADHD is going through it alone. You struggle daily… sometimes you win, more often you suffer setbacks… but always, you do it alone.

What do you do when you’re diagnosed with adult ADHD? Most people search Google or ask their doctors. But that leaves you feeling broken and lost. And what if you do nothing? Your life slips away. Your dreams crumble. You feel shame and you lose confidence.

Logic doesn’t cure loneliness

Your loneliness, and desperation, grows. No one gets you unless they have adult ADHD too. We know others face similar challenges. It’s logical. But… logic doesn’t cure loneliness.

What Changed My Life

I went to my first ADHD Conference in 2005 in Tucson, Arizona. I went with Linda, my wife… I never would have attended alone. Like many of you, I learned of my ADHD as an adult. My daughter’s diagnosis happened when she started school and mine followed as we learned about ADHD.

Relief… and shame

I felt relief knowing at there was a reason for my struggles, but I hid my ADHD out of shame. I’d heard about the Conference, but I wasn’t sure… to be honest, I was afraid…

Go to the Conference. It’ll change your life

Then a good friend, another adult with ADHD, said, “Duane, go to the Conference. It’ll change your life”. She was right. Attending that first Conference was life changing.

I wasn’t alone

Surrounded by hundreds of fellow adults with ADHD, I realized I was not alone. I soaked up more information in three days than I’d learned in months, even years, before the Conference… That was the first step in a transformation that continues today. I was shy, anxious and lonely. Today, I’m ADDA’s president.

Come on home

There’s more to the story, but I’ll save that for another day. Every journey starts with a single step. For you, as it was for me, attending this Conference might be that step. Finally, I was “home.” These were my people. They get me. Here was a place I could be myself.

Linda and I were sitting in the audience as Sari Solden wrapped up her famous “Sheep Shame” keynote. I turned to Linda and said, “From now on, no matter when, no matter where, no matter what it costs, we’ll be at this ADHD Conference.” Linda agreed. And as Robert Frost would say, “That has made all the difference.”

See you in November!

To your success,

Duane

Finally, It’s Your Turn

You have a choice to make: Do what you’ve been doing (or worse, do nothing at all). You know where that will lead. Is that where you want to go? Take a new action, and get a new result.

Come to the Conference

You are at the mercy of your ADHD. Until you take charge of your adult ADHD, you can’t take control of your life. Stop stumbling around in the dark. Come to the Conference. The latest ADHD treatments, advances and research shine a light and guide your path. And you won’t be alone. Connect with leaders, top professionals and organizations in the ADHD field. And connect with hundreds of adults with ADHD like you. Which do you really want for yourself?

The post TADD 2021 – Lessons Learned from Writing an ADHD Book with Linda Roggli, PCC appeared first on ADDA - Attention Deficit Disorder Association.

This year (2020) has been a year like no other. This is also true of our annual Conference. Every year, ADDA gets together with CHADD and the ACO to hold the International Conference on ADHD. Well over a thousand people gather, physically, at a conference center – this year it was supposed to be in Dallas, Texas – to celebrate and learn about ADHD. As you can imagine, things did not go as planned.

Because of Covid-19, we held our first virtual International Conference on ADHD. Until March, 2020, our Conference Committee was busy planning for an event that would happen at a hotel in Dallas in November. Then we got the news.

What’s a Pandemic?

What’s a pandemic? What does that mean? What about our Conference? What do we do now?

Like most organizations, we were “flying blind.” But unlike most organizations, most of our volunteers have ADHD! Creative in an emergency? You bet. Pivot on a dime? In our sleep. Make it up as we go along? Piece of cake.

We anticipated some aspects of our Conference would translate well to the online world. Other elements, however, would be more challenging. But a challenge just makes us dig in our heels. Melissa Reskof, ADDA’s Conference Chair, gathered up all her best volunteers – ADDA members with years of virtual operations experience – support groups, Webinars, workshops and more – all run online for ADDA members around the world – and she went to work, along with volunteers from CHADD and ACO.

Life-Changing Live Events

The 2020 Conference was not the same. There were no hugs. There were no late-night parties – actually, that’s not true – there were still late-night parties, and people connecting over lunches and breakfasts – they just were done over Zoom. There was still that human connection the Conference is all about.

There were live events, where people gathered in a Zoom room, and conducted live support groups and interactive sessions. I’ve heard so many people share how life-changing those sessions were. ADDA support groups are always life-changing, but this Conference exposed a whole new group of people to the power of hanging out with people who just get you.

Deep-Learning Recorded Sessions

And there were recorded sessions. Even I wondered how a pre-recorded session would be different than hanging around at home watching Youtube videos. But it was… it was very different.

At the time of the event, the video appears. If you’re there on time, you press play and you and (who knows how many) others begin watching. You feel all alone. And then someone makes a comment in the chat. Then someone asks a question – hey, wait! It’s someone you know! You quickly start a side conversation interspersed with people’s questions.

Someone joins late, but they want to join in the conversation. Suddenly a comment appears in the chat, “Where are we in the video?” Someone replies and then hop ahead so they can watch and join in the discussion. Anyone with technical issues asks them in the chat, and other people pipe up with solutions. It was as friendly as any ADHD Conference I’ve been to in the last 15 years.

Then the speaker begins to answer the questions! You’re watching the speaker give the presentation AND the speaker is there live answering your questions in the chat! Once the video ends, you all join the live Zoom meeting for an interactive discussion with the speaker and the moderator.

Lots of Good News

So the International Conference on ADHD was different in 2020. Of course, if hadn’t been different, I think it would have been the only thing that stayed the same in this year we’ll never forget. The thing I appreciated most about this Conference was the reach.

ADDA is an international organization. We have active members in countries circling the globe. Time zones are a challenge, but one we’re used to dealing with. This first virtual Conference was far more accessible to our far-flung members than our in-person Conferences have ever been. I personally met people from India, Australia, Kenya, Argentina, England, Canada, Jamaica and more. Many more countries, and of course, every state in the United States, were also represented.

Many of our international members would never have been able to travel to our Conference if it had happened in Dallas. Many of our members here locally would not have been able to travel to Dallas. Booking flights, reserving your hotel, thinking of meals, ensuring you remembered to save up vacation and more make travelling to this Conference an uphill challenge for many adults with ADHD. I’ve heard from so many people who attended this Conference, for the first time, because it was virtual.

What Does the Future Hold?

I miss the hugs too, but whatever the Conference in 2021 looks like, I hope we keep finding ways to connect with ALL our members, wherever they are.

What did you love about the 2020 Conference? What would you like to see in the future? We’d love you to share your thoughts.
