ADHD doesn't end at graduation.

🔹15.5% of teens ages 12 to 17 have been diagnosed
🔹15.5 million U.S. adults have a current ADHD diagnosis.

Here's the surprise: more than HALF of those adults weren't diagnosed until adulthood.

If you've always wondered, it's never too late to ask.

❌ Myth: People with mental health conditions are violent.

✅ Fact: Only 3% to 5% of violent acts can be attributed to people living with serious mental illness. People with severe mental illness are more than 10 times more likely to be victims of violent crime than the general population.

Let's retire this one for good.
