But what about the financial impacts of ADHD? How much does ADHD cost our schools, hospitals and justice systems?
And, most importantly, is that a cost we’re willing to keep paying?
Hear from Jennifer Haig in this crash-course on what it’s like to live with ADHD, and how this ‘trivial’ condition is costing Australians billions each year.
Jennifer Haig is a fresh QUT graduate, having studied Media & Communication, Marketing, Creative Writing, and previously, Education & Developmental Psychology. When she’s not working as a project coordinator for a creative digital agency, she’s a published writer, researcher, and award-winning choir conductor. A passionate ‘life-long-learner’, you can usually find her binging Wikipedia articles or deep-diving into obscure video essays. She is also one of the 2.5% of Australian adults living with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at
