The ADHD + Chronic Illness peer support group is a safe, supportive, and judgment-free environment for adults living with ADHD and chronic illness to reflect on and share our challenges and successes, learn from one another, gain insights about managing our chronic illness and ADHD, develop new strategies and skills, as well as discuss resources. Navigating the intersection of living with ADHD and chronic illness presents its share of challenges, but it's also a journey marked by resilience and growth. Despite the complexities, we find strength in our ability to adapt and overcome. The symptoms of ADHD, such as difficulties with focus, organization, and impulsivity, can exacerbate the management of chronic illness, making adherence to treatment plans and medication schedules challenging. Fluctuating symptoms of chronic illness further disrupt our daily routines and exacerbate our ADHD symptoms. However, by acknowledging these unique challenges and embracing a spirit of resilience, we can cultivate innovative strategies for managing our health. Through self-compassion and support from our peers, we can learn to navigate the ups and downs with grace and determination, offering hope for a future filled with the possibility of living better in spite of our ADHD and our chronic illness.
