“Living with ADHD is really f–king difficult,” she said. “It’s a little embarrassing. Especially when I’m nervous, my mind is running a mile a minute. My ADHD speaks for me before I can speak for me. If I’m in public and people walk up to me – because I’ve never been famous before – I’ve probably lost something by the time everyone has left me. I’m easily disorientated. But I’m getting a hold on that.”

The admission is one of many that have been made over the years by individuals in the spotlight living with ADHD, from athletes like Simone Biles to actresses like Michelle Rodriguez. Check out stars speaking about dealing with ADHD both as kids and in some cases, like SZA’s, well into adulthood.
