British musician Loyle Carner says that life as a child with ADHD left him feeling alienated. He states that he was seen as disruptive, stupid- he couldn’t spell well and couldn’t focus. Other children were not allowed to sit near him out of fear that he would distract them from schoolwork.
Hindered by ADHD as a child; Energized by ADHD as an adult
Coming terms with it as an adult, Carner recollects that he didn’t know what to expect for his future because he didn’t know anyone older with ADHD. Medication did not work for him so he had to figure out on his own that having ADHD wasn’t necessarily a bad thing and contributes to who he is. Without ADHD he believes, he would not be able to make comedy or music. Carner has come to see ADHD as a “superpower” in fact, which charges him emotionally and creatively.
