Introduction

 Hello, My name is Alexis Garrison.  I have created this blog for my social media class that I am taking this semester.  This blog is going to have information on ADHD mainly in children and college athletes and how it is linked to mental health issues.  This topic is really important to me, my whole life I have grown up with focusing issues and it has really been a struggle.  Now being a college athlete, I want to make people aware of these issues and how show badly people are affected by ADHD.  Being a college athlete is stressful on its own, but now with remote learning it is even more difficult.  My main goal with blog is I want people who are struggling with ADHD to know that they are not alone.  It may be difficult but rocky roads lead to beautiful destinations.  I hope to change just one person's life and make them feel wanted and loved.  It is not easy to deal with issues and sometimes people just need an outlet to go too.  Thank you for reading my blog! I also have a twitter account where I am uploading frequently about ADHD.  The link my twitter account is https://twitter.com/ADHDinfoproject if you are looking for more information.  I am looking forward to updating this blog weekly on information and facts about ADHD.
