Description

When Sydney Dodini started noticing her ADHD symptoms as a young adult, she attributed them to lifestyle changes and a difficult course-load rather than a potential neurodevelopmental condition. As Sydney explains in this interview, the path toward diagnosis can be tricky. Avoiding the "stigma of self-diagnosis" while adapting to life changes like a new university can change the way we see our struggles.  Some people may see themselves in Sydney's story. In this interview, Sydney discusses experiences with procrastination and the "nearsightedness of the brain" that other people with ADHD have felt, as well as her journey to a diagnosis.
