SUMMARY:Women's Support Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Second Wednesday of the Month \nBecause ADHD in women often presents differently than men\, many women have gone undiagnosed until later in life presenting an entirely different set of circumstances. Whether you’re just learning that you have ADHD\, or you’ve had a diagnosis since childhood\, this is the right place for you. This meeting is a safe space for women with ADHD to discuss everything from how hormones affect ADHD symptoms\, trying medication for the first time\, to moving forward with life after diagnosis. \nJoin us online here:

SUMMARY:GUEST SPEAKER! - Sean Swaby - ADHD\, Substance Use & Addiction
DESCRIPTION:ADHD\, Substance Use & Addiction\nADHD and Addiction are like Thelma and Louise\, Bart and Homer\, or Thor and Loki. They spend a lot of time together\, but they don’t make good roommates because addiction likes to take over.\n  \nAbout The Event \n\n\n\n\nStudies estimate that 20–40% of adults with ADHD will struggle with a substance\nuse disorder at some point. Addictions can come in many forms\, like substance use\, gambling\, gaming\, and sex. In this presentation we will discuss why addictions to drugs\, alcohol and certain behaviors are so common in people with ADHD. We will talk about what makes change difficult and how people with ADHD have found ways to face\, overcome\, and even befriend their addictions.\n \nBoth ADHD and addiction can have profound impacts our emotions and our relationships. This presentation will also talk about what you can do if someone\nyou care about is struggling.\n \nDisclosure: This session will not tell you can do to fix or “cure” addiction. It will\nnot give you strategies that work for every person\, every time. It will talk about\nADHD and addiction with respect\, hope\, and with dignity.\n\nAnd it will be interactive\, imperfect and even a little bit fun! \n\nAbout our speaker: \nSean Swaby is a Canadian Certified Counsellor\, Counselling Supervisor\, and Addiction Therapist. In his practice\, he works with youth\, individuals\, and families who are navigating substance use\, addiction\, trauma\, and co-occurring mental health challenges. He is also an Adjunct Faculty at City University in Edmonton\, where he teaches the Psychology of Addictions. \nSean brings creativity into his counselling and supervision by drawing on pop\nculture\, superheroes\, and other ‘geeky’ themes that make it more engaging and\nrelatable. \nOutside of his professional life\, Sean enjoys photography\, time with his family\,\nand anything with superheroes\, zombies\, or aliens. He also volunteers with an Edmonton-based cosplay group\, suiting up as characters like Batman\, Daredevil\,\nCaptain America\, and Blade to bring some fun and inspiration to local children’s\ncharity events. \nDiagnosed with ADHD about ten years ago\, Sean is actively involved as a\nfacilitator with the Adult ADHD group. \n\n*Tickets are free on Eventbrite here; however\, we gratefully accept donations from those who are able to help. Every donation goes towards helping individuals affected by ADHD. If you would like to donate there is an option to do so on the ticket page.
