Do you have ADHD? If so, you’re in good company! ADHD is one of the most common information-processing challenges in the world today, and it affects people of all ages. There are three different types of ADHD: Hyperactive-Impulsive ADHD, Inattentive ADHD, and a combination of the two: combined ADHD. Each type has its own unique set of strengths and challenges. This is the first in a series of blog posts. This one will discuss the three types of ADHD, the symptoms, and ways to leverage your ADHD traits as a remote worker or entrepreneur.
