ADHD Ireland Women's MORNING Online Support Group

Are you a woman identifying with the ADHD traits or diagnosed as ADHD?

Come join our ADHD Women's specific morning online support group where we have created a safe and secure space for participants to discuss challenges relevant to women and uncover strengths.

The space was created to bring like-MINDed women together so that they know they are not alone in what they are experiencing.

Various topics will be discussed in each session as the conversation is led by the group.

You can ask questions, discover resources to support you, and learn from others sharing their experiences.

Please register by purchasing the free ticket as soon as you can, all you need is a computer with a camera.

This group requires participants to have their cameras on.

Further instructions and a link to the Zoom meeting will be emailed to you ahead of the meeting.

NOTE: Only register to attend if you are certain you can attend on the night as places are limited and fill up quickly.

If you book a space and do not attend, you are preventing someone else from participating.

If you have any questions, please give our administration team a call on 01 8748349.

Note: The below text should be in every event in the online event section and the detail section.

Support Group Guidelines are as follows:

Everything discussed within the group is confidential and not to be discussed outside the group

Medication advice will not be given – ADHD Ireland facilitators and group participants are not clinicians and not qualified to moderate discussions on medication

Everyone will be given an opportunity to speak, if they wish to do so, however, there is no obligation on anyone to speak

Anonymity is important, particularly for online groups, therefore usernames only should be used and not actual names

Be respectful in allowing other people a chance to speak, try and avoid speaking over each other

Further support is available by emailing info@adhdireland.ie

For the safety and comfort of all participants it is requested that cameras are on for the start of each meeting and in the breakout rooms

Log in details will be emailed to each participant once you have registered here on Eventbrite. Once you have registered for a place in the group that will secure your place and you can then log in on the evening at the start time.

NOTE: Please do not register if you think you cannot participate in the session because places are limited and it may take up a space that someone else would like to use.
