It’s the end of October, which (some of you might know?) is ADHD Awareness Month.

For awhile now, I’ve been crafting comics about what it feels like to be a parent of a child with severe ADHD, though these comics currently exist only on my computer and in various file folders scattered throughout my office.

Eventually, I hope to have a permanent online home for the ongoing story of my own journey toward understanding my son’s neurodivergence, and becoming a better parent, and I will share that here on my blog when it becomes a reality.

Today, though, I’m extremely excited to share my comic “What I Thought About ADHD,” which should offer a window into my world as a parent. I can’t tell you what it’s like to have ADHD, but I can at least spread awareness of how it manifests in (my own) child, and how it can make you feel as a parent, and (perhaps) how you should consider reacting to what you see.

I’m indebted to Editor Michael Wheaton at Autofocus (a great publisher of nonfiction work!) for giving this piece a home, and I hope you’ll check it out here at the link.
