Refocused, Together: Julian Henderson and the Intersection of Deafness and ADHD
Manage episode 381148467 series 3524157
Growing up Deaf, Julian Henderson wasn’t evaluated for ADHD. He was labeled hyperactive and distracted and sent on his way, through high school and college where a doctor finally referred him for an ADHD diagnosis. Today he works at Ohio School for the Deaf, is hoping to start a career in information technology, and continues to learn how to keep his ADHD from controlling him.
Press play for stories about life with ADHD, how a diagnosis can be both relief and challenge, and how Julian hopes to find his place in the ADHD community.
