About

Welcome to TrueJourneyADHD, a space where personal stories, hard-earned lessons, and practical advice come together to inspire and empower those navigating life with ADHD and other mental health challenges.

My Story

I’m Mikael, the voice behind TrueJourneyADHD. My journey began long before I knew what ADHD was. Growing up, I always felt different, often struggling to focus, stay organized, or meet the expectations set by others. It wasn’t until much later in life that I was diagnosed with ADHD, a revelation that made sense of so many of my past experiences.

This blog is a reflection of my life—moments of darkness and despair interwoven with glimmers of hope and joy. It’s about the struggle to prove myself in a world that didn’t always understand or support me. At the age of 45, after years of navigating life’s ups and downs, I finally understood my challenges for what they were: not failures, but opportunities for growth.

What You’ll Find Here

TrueJourneyADHD is more than just a blog—it’s a community for anyone who feels different, misunderstood, or overwhelmed by life’s challenges. Here, I share:

  • Personal Experiences: Honest reflections on my life with ADHD, from childhood struggles to adult responsibilities.
  • Parenting Insights: As a parent of a child with ADHD, I know firsthand the unique challenges and rewards. I share tips, stories, and advice for parents walking a similar path.
  • Mental Health Discussions: Conversations about the impact of ADHD on mental health, with a focus on strategies for coping and thriving.
  • Inspiration and Motivation: Stories of resilience and redemption, aimed at inspiring you to overcome your own obstacles.
  • Practical Tips and Resources: From school preparation to managing daily life with ADHD, I offer practical advice that you can apply to your own journey.

My mission is simple: to help others see that they are not alone.
