TikTok accidentally detected my ADHD. For 23 years everyone missed the warning signs | Matilda Boseley

Learning you have ADHD on TikTok is now such a common phenomenon it has become its own meme, but it can be tricky

It's kind of embarrassing to say, but the social media app TikTok figured out I had ADHD before I did.

For 23 years my parents, my teachers, my doctor, my psychologist and my own brain all missed the warning signs, yet somehow it only took that app's algorithm a few days to accidentally diagnose me.
