More than half of adults with ADHD also experience anxiety. But, Sibley’s study shows this might not always be a bad thing. skip past newsletter promotion

this article feels.... really gross. like wow, ADHD people thrive under stress! i wonder how they ended up like that

it also doesn't seem to have any regard for the wellbeing of the people in the study, just their productivity, although it could just be being presented poorly by the article

just shitty overall

Study's don't have to study every aspect....they can focus on just one...like someone with ADHD and how they handle productivity during stress.

Personally, I wouldn't want wellbeing in the way when reading about ADHD peoples stress and productivity. Stick to the point and don't add feelings garbage into it.

would it be that it were so simple, but for that "feelings garbage" to be the cause of ADHD to begin with...

It’s a study not a therapy session.
