ADHD is the new BLACK
People & Blogs
"No Stigma No Shame" I'm Stacey Machelle, creator of ADHD is the new Black. Coincidentally, I am ADHD and-I'm Black. I'm COMPELLED to help my fellow Black and Brown sisters and all humans kick the stigma & shame of ADHD. Through silly humor and serious research, you'll learn how ADHD hijacks your decision-making, your emotions, and even how you communicate. You'll also find actionable resources to help you manage typical ADHD challenges, like time-management & finishing stuff. I lived too many years suffering in silence from untreated ADHD. I was a mystery to myself, full of unanswerable "whys." Why am I a high-achiever but unable to follow through? Why am I always rushing? Why do I lose my keys/wallet/phone often? Why do I wait til the last minute to do EVERYTHING? Once I got a handle on my ADHD, I didn't want another woman to suffer as I did. Just because most black women don't talk about it doesn't mean it's not happening to them too. You are not alone.
