Hello all,

Unfortunately, I am writing to let you know that this month's CHADD of Tucson Parents & Family Info & Support Meeting is cancelled. My family has caught COVID-19 and I don't feel well enough to facilitate. I'm sorry to miss you all -- and I hope the new school year is off to a good start!!

We will reconvene next month -- mark your calendars for Thursday, September 26th @ 7-8:30pm via Zoom!

In the meantime, below are some links to a few of my favorite YouTube channels about ADHD -- in case you'd like to do some online learning on your own.

Stay healthy out there,

Sarah May

ADHD learning on YouTube:

Dr. Russel Barkley: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0tLWu7ljYVFPiZQfHjTMsA

This long-time ADHD researcher created this channel to share his research about ADHD diagnosis and treatment with the public. Lots of science-backed info here!

HowToADHD: https://www.youtube.com/c/howtoadhd

This brilliant Gen-Z creator shares short videos about her own experience with ADHD and strategies to manage it. She's creative and resourceful!

ADHD Dude: https://www.youtube.com/@ADHDDude/featured

I recently learned about this social worker here in Arizona, who is a therapist and a parent of an ADHD kid himself. I've only watched a bit of the content on this channel so far, but it seems interesting and applicable!

All CHADD of Tucson Support Group Meetings Are Free and Open to the Public!

CHADD Adult Support Group Meeting

Wednesday, September 11th Meeting

Topic:

ADHD: Difficulties Recognizing Faces and Facial Expressions

Everyone has trouble time to time recognizing a face, or facial expression, but adults with ADHD have been found, as a group, to have more trouble than the general population. Sometimes these difficulties are significant enough to cause difficulties at work, school, socially, and in romantic relationships.  Learn who can help and what you can do to work around such difficulties as well as improve your facial, and emotional recognition.  Please bring your challenges and advice for others.
You are not alone!

Need support related to a different topic? Join us anyway! There will be plenty of open discussion time for general support too.

This is a Zoom-only meeting. If you have any questions, contact Dr. Blake at kblake@drkevintblake.com or call/text 520-429-1925
