Wiznitzer says the new findings underscore the importance of treating ADHD in adults as well as children – not just with medications but also with behavioral therapy that teaches strategies to manage executive function problems that are a hallmark of the condition.

Edit: sorry not a meme but I think it is important to remember to take care of yourself and basics. Water 💧 Exercise 🏃 Food 🥘

Medication 💊 help but it is not the solution for behavioral change.
