Primarily Inattentive ADHD can be harder to spot than Hyperactive or Combined type Presentations. On the theory that a picture can be worth a thousand words, I found six short videos on TikTok that convey the experience of inattention quite clearly. You will find my favorites below.
Consider yourself warned though, as Additude Magazine says in ADHD Advocates Find a Home on TikTok, “There’s never been a social media platform better designed to suck up an hour of your time in what feels like a few minutes.” You’ll find a number of ADHD advocates spreading ADHD awareness and community in the article above as well in the Short List on TikTok Is My Therapist: The Dangers and Promise of Viral #MentalHealth Videos. Be aware that many TikTok presenters attracting attention often perpetuate hyperactive stereotypes and provide more misinformation than helpful content.
