ADHD and dandelions (Taraxacum spp.)! I didn’t give this one much thought, because someone already had done it for me!
“The Dandelion is a sunny flower full of hope, but is often treated like a lesser flower. Yet it still manages to flourish – often in conditions other flowers can’t. Its seeds travel far and wide and as children it has been used to create wishes. So this flower, that is often treated like a weed, actually brings joy and whimsy to our lives. We see the dandelion as symbolising the ability to rise above life’s challenges. People with ADHD can overcome obstacles through the use of their intelligence and connections with people who can share mutual support in facing life’s challenges. ADHD Australia’s purpose is to move from stigma to acceptance and hope.” (ADHD Australia, 2019)
If you have something to spare, donate to their charity and get involved. They aim to de-stigmatize ADHD and support patients, even overseas, through collaboration with other organizations for people with ADHD/ADD.
