Refocused, Together: Christopher and Managing the ADHD Transition To College

Christopher was diagnosed with ADHD at an early age, thanks to his parents and teachers noticing symptoms during elementary school. He also attributes being in an immersion program with a high-performing academic culture as what helped to highlight what was going on for him and how he was different from other students.

 

Now an 18-year-old college student, Christopher shares his ADHD experience and what he's doing to prepare for the next chapter in life – living on his own for the first time while attending school roughly 1600 miles away from home.
