The Manhattan Adult ADD Support Group will have its next lecture on Thursday October 20, 2022 at 06:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada) on Zoom: The topic will be: ADHD & Anxiety In Adults. Our presenter will be Psychologist Sharon Saline, PSYD.
Since the pandemic, ADHD diagnoses have risen steeply. While anxiety levels have gone through the roof.
Where does ADHD end, and anxiety begin? Can certain symptoms show up in either? If both disorders are present, can the combination pack an extra punch?
Tough questions, but our presenter is among the best.
Psychologist Sharon Saline works with kids, families and adults. She specializes in ADHD and learning issues.
A prolific writer, she's the author two books: The ADHD Solution Card Deck; and What Your ADHD Child Wishes You Knew. Her work appears in ADDitude, Psychology Today, Your Tango, and elsewhere.
Dr. Saline also leads workshops -- across the world -- on such subjects as executive functioning; different kinds of learners; the teenage brain; and our upcoming topic: anxiety.
We live by the motto: Were Not Lazy, Crazy, or Stupid :)
