When Rich and Rox Pink's TikTok video about Rox forgetting she needed a tampon went viral, they had no idea they were starting a movement. Their account ADHD_Love has since captured millions of hearts with its raw honesty about living with ADHD. What makes their story so compelling isn't just the humor but the profound emotional connection they've created with an audience that has spent years feeling misunderstood. "People cry when they meet us because of shame-the same shame I carried my entire life until my ADHD diagnosis at 36," Rox explains. Their book "Dirty Laundry" breaks down the walls of silence around neurodivergence, offering both validation and practical wisdom for those navigating similar challenges. In a world where ADHD is often reduced to stereotypes, their work reveals the complex reality behind the diagnosis-and the transformative power of compassion.
