British actor and singer Sheridan Smith opened up about her ADHD diagnosis for the first time in a new interview.
ADHD stands for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. According to the NHS, it is “a condition that affects people’s behaviour”. People with ADHD can often appear “restless” and “may have trouble concentrating and may act on impulse.”
Sheridan says her diagnosis ‘makes a lot of sense’
In a new interview with British Vogue, West End star Sheridan revealed her diagnosis for the first time.
“Can I talk about my diagnosis?” she asked her publicist in the middle of the interview.
At the time of the interview, Sheridan said she was diagnosed with ADHD two weeks ago. She explained that finding out she has the disorder has started to “make a lot of sense” of things.
Sheridan said she noticed she was “overanalysing” things and her brain’s background noise.
