“Workplace Accommodations That Actually Work”
I’ve held roughly 30 jobs in my lifetime — most of them before I discovered my ADHD at age 30. I’ve been in my current role for two and a half years.
While my ADHD symptoms have caused difficulties at work, my organization openly discusses how to make improvements and what resources are needed to work through them.I am grateful that my company takes a “bring your whole self to work” approach.
That attitude has encouraged me to discuss my experience as an adult living with ADHD and it has taught me the importance of creating an inclusive, supportive workplace for colleagues with neurodiverse conditions.
I realize that many people with ADHD are not so fortunate.People with ADHD are chronically unemployed or underemployed. This doesn’t affect their ability to succeed at work, but it may hinder their chances of getting past the hiring stage.Once hired, many people with ADHD wrestle with whether to reveal their diagnosis in the workplace.
