Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has become a familiar term to millions of parents, children, students and teachers in recent decades. But how much do we truly understand about the ways it affects an individual? What is it like to live with the condition? To go through a typical school day? Toby shares personal insights about a world most of us have only heard about.

Toby is a high school student with Czech and British roots. He has been intensely involved in rowing and acting for several years, and continues to pursue the dramatic arts both in and out of school. He discovered he has ADHD only two years before this talk.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
