I'm glad this little tip resonated with lots of people. I do want to clarify a couple of things. 1) I meant this tip for people who actually have ADHD. Not in that way that people sometimes use it informally to just talk about forgetting or being a little scatterbrained. bsky.app/profile/polo...

I think “twice exceptional” created because too many people thought someone who was a strong reader or good student couldn’t have ADHD or some other learning issue. So many people denied ADHD diagnosis because they were in college! But, yes, people have made it very weird.

Ahh, sorry. I meant every disabled student!

Yes, it's a little difficult. Plus some folks made accounts but don't seem to currently use them. @adhdjesse.com@karencosta.bsky.social@dradawrites.bsky.social@roryreckons.bsky.social is here.

Turned out to be very short-lived.

The availability of research on ADHD prevalence across Asia varies and Asia is obviously incredibly diverse. This review was restricted to studies conducted in East, Southeast, and South Asian countries. There's A LOT that remains unknown, and hopefully this paper sparks more research. (5/n)

There's a stigma associated with ADHD in the US and also across Asia, which may prevent care. Apparently Asian American use ADHD medications less frequently than other groups, so it's possible parents adverse to medications won't seek diagnosis. (4/n)
