🌟Inside Our ADHD Minds🌟
Our CEO Professor Amanda Kirby was thrilled to be a part of the making of Inside Our ADHD Minds, as part of the BBC Inside Our Minds documentary series presented by Chris Packham.
In this documentary series Chris Packham shines a light on different aspects of our brains, helping neurodivergent people create beautiful films to explain how their minds work.
Inside Our ADHD Minds
One in seven people have brains that work differently, and more people are being diagnosed with ADHD, dyslexia and autism than ever before. But neurodivergent people are more likely to experience depression, anxiety and even suicidal thoughts. Chris Packham believes this is a hidden crisis and wants to help neurodivergent people explain what’s going on inside their minds. And he’s starting with ADHD.
It’s thought that one in 20 people has ADHD, but Chris still feels that the condition remains misunderstood. He meets two people frustrated that the people in their lives don’t fully understand what having ADHD means to them. Teaming up with top filmmakers, animators and graphic designers, they create evocative short films which explain to family and friends how they’re truly feeling inside – and what’s really going on inside their ADHD minds.
