The once-invisible enemy
Over his many years of putting patients first, George faced challenges and difficulties of his own. His relationships with family and friends, performance in school, productivity, business, and job suffered, all due to short-term forgetfulness, distractions, lack of focus, poor time management, and disorganization. He did not know the cause of his struggle for decades.
George went back to school to become a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. During his studies, he realized that his behavior and struggles were like those of people with ADHD. He took interest in the disorder and studied it deeply. He sought an evaluation and was diagnosed with ADHD. He is currently being treated, and is picking up the broken pieces and putting his life back together.
"My lived experience informs and shapes my practice and the way I care for my patients, with empathy, understanding, respect, and compassion."
“I know myself now and I’ve learned how to live with my mental health disorder and make the best of it instead of feeling my way in the dark.”
