Let's get real y'all. Long (but important) Caption Alert.

Since its inception, Divided Attention as both a podcast & a page was created with the purpose to discuss ADHD from perspectives we weren't seeing represented by the mainstream ADHD community. We bring all of our identities to the work that we do, & we can't separate one from another.

So when events of the world impact one (or many) of our identities other than our neurodivergence, we gotta talk about it in a meaningful way. It's what you expect from us.

We can't just keep being a happy go lucky ADHD page.
We can't just post Reels & memes.
We can't just smile & be quirky & act like everything's normal.
That's not us & it's never been.

But what we can (& try our best to) do is give resources & knowledge to people like us, with more than just ADHD going on. Because people like us, those we like to call Noiredivergent, need more than memes and smiles.

This information series aims to explain why social justice issues seem to impact those with ADHD so much, & what you can do about it. We hope this informs & energizes you into action & resistance.

27/06/2022

Hey Besties, we know you look forward to our regularly scheduled episodes, but unfortunately, tomorrow's episode will be rescheduled to next Tuesday.

As we all know, there's been a lot going on in the world lately, & we just need a moment to recover. Thanks for always understanding.

Besties, have y'all seen the post circulating social media that talks about Bionic Reading? 📖

It's a new typeface that's supposed to help people with ADHD increase reading comprehension. & We tried it out on the opening segment of our most recent episode (🔗 in bio)! Swipe for a bit of what we think!

We used a Google Chrome Plugin that converts the text from any webpage into the Bionic Reading Typeface. The plugin needs some tweaks, but overall, we gave Bionic Reading a rating of 4.25 🧠.

Have y'all tried Bionic Reading out yet, or has this post persuaded you to try it? What are your opinions? Do you think this'll help with losing your place & having to reread sentences 20 times 😂

Let us know in the comments 👇🏾

Moral of the story? Don't trip over lost marbles Besties. Happy

Celebrities: they're just like us! & Sometimes more than we realize. 🤔

How many times have you watched a show or movie & been like, "This character is just like me. I see myself in them. WE SEE EACH OTHA!!" ✌🏾

Well on today's episode, we take that to another level & discuss one of our fav personalities, Porsha Williams, & whether we think some of her behaviors & traits are indicative of . Go give our newest episode a listen & tell us what you think! 🎧

DISCLAIMER: This episode is not an attempt to diagnose Porsha; neither Kay nor Bree are clinicians/medical professionals. It's just a lighthearted, speculative discussion between two good friends. 👭🏾

Our Noiredivergent series is back, Besties!

We haven't done one of these in a while!But in honor of our Guestie Bianca ()shouting out her Black, femme, ND idol, we decided to feature the one and only Mel B! UK Besties stand up!!

You probably know the singer, actress, & television host best from her time with the Spice Girls. But, like most of us with ADHD, she's multi-talented, booked & busy. In 2019 she was a guest on Positivity Podcast, where she outlined some of her diagnoses & how she manages them. She listed her exercise regimen as one of the things that kept her mind clear & her anxiety at bay. She stated that working out is her way of meditation, helping her to focus on just herself for 45 minutes to an hour a day. How did learning that Mel B is noiredivergent make you feel Besties? Can you relate to her words? Sound off in the comments!

Thank you for inspiring us all by sharing so much of yourself & living authentically Mel B. We could all take a page from your book & find some Me-time!
