ADHD is not much known in Malaysia because it is hard to identify it in children as they look like any other children. Also, most people in Malaysia consider mental disorders as a taboo, as a result most people do not refer to the psychiatrist if they experience any symptom of mental disorder. Therefore, ADHD is mostly overlooked in both children and adults.

2. No

3. Yes, because I understand how they have to implement ADHD into their lives and most probably have to cope other people's misconception about them. I sympathise with them more because of this disorder, they disrupt their ability to finish a job without easily getting distracted or being forgetful or being disorganized. Having ADHD might also affect their relationship with people. So, I feel sorry that they might feel frustrated with themselves when it's not their fault.

The reasons why ADHD is not known in Malaysia because the goverment doesn't take it seriously and this is the result of unaware towards Malaysians.

2. No

3. Yeah I have better understanding on ADHD and it make me realise that's my responsibility to help those who has ADHD.
I'll try to understand what they truly feelings and give them some advise.

In my opinion, ADHD in Malaysia are not much known by the general populace because there is not enough exposure toward mental illnesses. Not to mention the older generation perspective towards mental illnesses that treat it like it is non-existent and merely a reason for their children to be naughty.

2. No, I have not encountered anyone with ADHD as far as I could remember.

3. After reading the article, I can somewhat understand what people with ADHD have to live with throughout their live but I dare not say I fully understand their living situation as I have never been in their shoes. Despite my connotation, I definitely sympathise more with people that have ADHD. Being different from other people can make them the center of unwanted attention, plus difficulty to work and hardship to maintain a healthy relationship with people around them are honestly quite saddening. In conclusion, I feel for them and if someone with ADHD ever pass through the frame of my life, I would treat them just like I treat other people.]]> 2021-08-14 13:18:35 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1679005998 AIMAN FARHAN BIN MISBAH S16 https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1679089817 1.In my opinion,ADHD is not much known because the people in Malaysia doesn't take this symptom as a serious symptom.Therefore,they never look forward to get a checkup while itself already have an ADHD.

2.No

3.Of course, after understanding this ADHD thing, I have better understanding about these symptoms and i'll try to help others with ADHD. I will try to understand them and give some advice that I can give.]]> 2021-08-14 16:33:04 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1679089817 NOORHAARISA BINTI HAKIM S16 https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1679280114 1. Because most of malaysians, they didn’t meet the psychologist to know about themselves unless they got a mental illness to be cure. So, they’ve never knew about this kind of condition.

2. No, I haven’t 

3. This article and the video gave an exposure about ADHD. And obviously I haven’t heard about that before, so now I have understanding it.From my point of view, I think this condition is not what you should labelled yourself as a problematic person. But it make you realise that you’re different. And this is not a reason or an excuse for your failure. It is because you are lazy. If I met with someone who had the ADHD, I will support him or her and said “ It’s okay, you’re unique. I do know that you can be better. Everyone’s life are complicated. No one’s perfect”. And of course I will sympathise more with ADHD people and treat them differently because they are different.]]> 2021-08-15 04:28:46 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1679280114 CATHERINA BINTI MOHD NOOR AZMI S16 https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1679354455 1.In my opinion ADHD is not much publicize in Malaysia because they didn't know the symptoms of ADHD such as impulsiveness, disorganization, poor time management, problem focusing on task, trouble multitasking, excessive activity or restleness and many more. Furthermore, some Malaysians are always quick to draw conclusions about a person's mindset. This demonstrates a negative attitude among Malaysians, as well as the fact that they are unconcerned about a person's changes.

2.No, I haven't encountered someone diagnosed with ADHD.

3.I do have a better understanding on ADHA after reading the article and watching the video and I believe we should empathise more with people who have ADHD since, as we all know, it is normally diagnosed when we are children, but it is also possible to have ADHD as adults. Moreover, ADHD is neither preventable nor curable. However, early detection of ADHD, as well as a good treatment and education plan, can help a kid or adult with ADHD manage their symptoms. As a result, we should constantly lend a helping hand to persons with ADHD.]]> 2021-08-15 08:10:55 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1679354455 AL JAUZZI JAIMING JUNIOR S16 https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1679424573 1. I suppose, the reason why ADHD seems unusual in Malaysia is because it is not being taught in the curriculum and is being neglected by the society. The reason why they’re not taking mental health seriously is because they don’t believe in such things (ugh, conservatives 🙄). I can assure you, if you were to tell them about having an ADHD or depression or anxiety, most of them wouldn’t even care about it and they would think that you’re just giving an excuse and you’re being lazy.

2. No I have not. But I’d be more than happy if I did.

3. Yes, that’s for sure. I’ve always known that for one to have a mental condition/illness doesn’t make them any different from the rest of us. I’ve got so much respect for these people and I truly admire them because no matter how difficult things may be, they’ll always find a way to deal with it.

I believe that ADHD is not known in Malaysia due to the lack of awareness and knowledge of what ADHD actually is. Most people in Malaysia (from my personal experience) tend to believe it is a disorder or an excuse without even educating themselves on it. Secondly, educational systems in Malaysia also lack studies regarding ADHD. As a result, locals in Malaysia aren't exposed with this common condition (thus, producing a in denial mindset of ADHD) 

2. Personally, I haven't encountered anyone that was diagnosed with ADHD yet. 

3. Yes, I definitely have a better understanding on ADHD now. To be frank, I knew ADHD merely based on the fact that their easily distracted. But, it is much more serious than that. After more exposure on ADHD, I definitely sympathies more with the people with ADHD. With the help of the article and video, I can face the fact that people with ADHD do not have it easy. The mentality in Malaysia that people have regarding ADHD should change for the better good. ]]> 2021-08-15 12:52:44 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1679436381 NUR QISTINA BT MUHAMAD FAIZAL S16 https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1681932026 1. I think ADHD is not much known in Malaysia due to lack of awareness. Most of Malaysian dont really care about their mental even though they are struggling with it. Most people in Malaysia also dont even bother to spread awareness about mental health and causes a lot of people that struggling with it got neglected. People also tend to say that people with ADHD is just making an excuse to be lazy. It sometimes can be really frustrating.

2. Honestly, I havent encountered someone who diagnosed with ADHD so far.

2. Yes and surprisingly most of the symptoms are related to me. I also learned a lot about ADHD and I respect them who are diagnosed with any kind of mental illness because its not easy to go through your day without any obstacles. I will definately help them who are in need without any second thoughts and try to spread awareness about it in any way that I can.]]> 2021-08-17 10:13:19 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1681932026 MUHAMMAD AFFIQ BIN MOHD AFFENDY S16 https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1682040711 1.From my preview, the ADHD  wasn’t much know in Malaysia because usually they didn’t know about this syndrome in their life and they don’t take as the serious syndrome in the life. Moreover, they think that this syndrome was a normal things in their life.

2.No

3.I got better understanding about ADHD syndrome that happen in our life. As the people that never know about this syndrome before, I might help them for become better in other time. Its really hard for someone that had this syndrome and we should change our thinking about the ADHD syndrome to make sure their life can going normally.

-I think because our community in malaysia didn't take mental health as serious as they should. The media also didnt highlight this issues widely

2. Have you encountered someone diagnosed with ADHD / you think might have ADHD? If yes, how do cope with their condition and why do you treat them the way you do?
-I don't know for sure if i ever encountered someone with ADHD because i just knew this type of condition exist. But from my past experienced, i have several friend that may suffer from some of these symptoms. I always be a good listener to my friend and give them some advice if they want
3. After reading the article and watching the video, do you have a better understanding on ADHD and do you think you can sympathise more with people with ADHD?
-Yes, and these type of platform such as social media,newspaper and television should spread more information about ADHD as many of my fellow malaysian didnt even know about this type of condition. These kind of information may help them to fight ADHD and help them to get a better life]]> 2021-08-17 12:37:21 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1682058044 KAYLIN MUYOU ANGKAUS S16 https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1682068117 1. ADHD is not much known in Malaysia because not much is discussed about this topic. Schools as well as the media don't focus much on this topic because they think that it is not important. Other than that, some parents cannot accept the fact that their children have ADHD and just push it aside .Those who have ADHD are often mistaken for being naughty, unruly and undisciplined.

2. No I have not.

3. Yes I have a better understanding on ADHD and it's symptoms. I also sympathise more with people with ADHD as they are often misunderstood. I would definitely help those people who have ADHD.]]> 2021-08-17 12:43:12 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1682068117 AMEERA FIRZANA BT AZEEM FAZWAN S16 https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1682160229 1. From my point of view , psychological matters has never been taken seriously before. Therefore, ADHD itself is hard to be diagnosed. Parents are most likely to just assume that their kids are mischievous and naughty so, they tend to scold and discipline them rather than pay attention to their unique behaviours and asks for professional help.

2. Yes , I had a close friend who has ADHD, he is also mildly autistic. But, there’s nothing much that we had to cope or adjust because fortunately he himself was diagnosed by professionals and had it under control. He didn’t want us to treat him any different from everyone else. Also, we had a very positive environment when it comes to understanding other people’s personal issues . Despite his condition, he is very intelligent. 

3. Sure , I do sympathise anyone who suffers with any disorders such as ADHD and I would always try my best to understand what they go through and help to ease their lives as much as I can . This is because I personally would never know how it feels so, I would never belittle anyone like our previous generation did and raise awareness towards ADHD. ]]> 2021-08-17 13:45:50 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1682160229 IZZAH ZALIKHA AHMAD SAHIRUL ALIM S16 https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1682178129 1. ADHD is hard to recognize and most people who have ADHD will considered it as a habit or describe it as normal behaviour because the symptoms are forgetful, easily stressed etc.

2. Yes. My lecturer, madam Tya. She told that herself in last week's meet. The class just started so maybe me and my classmates can help her in every way to make her class run smoothly.

3. I never knew ADHD until I read the article. Personally, I hope they're doing fine and yes I will definitely see them with sympathy because of their condition. Eventhough I can't imagine how hard it would be for them, I still think it's very hard for me too if I had ADHD.

People also rather to see or feel it by theyself than reading something on newspaper. If this condition spread out among the people, they taught that ADHD isn’t a dangerous condition.

2) No

3) To be honest i before reading this article about ADHA, i dont even know what is ADHD was. Since then i do know a lot of new things about this condition like how do we know if someone have ADHD, what the side effects on long/short term, how to overcome and many more. ]]> 2021-08-18 00:34:01 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1683057669 MUHAMMAD AIMAN BIN HAIRUL ANUAR SECT16 aiman03 https://padlet.com/nurfarah2/tc5d68ynwmg15sua/wish/1683185547 1)from my point of view ADHD is hard to find in most Malaysian because most of them don't know the symptoms of ADHD such as poor time management, trouble multitasking,restlessnes and furthermore and most of them considered it as a normal behaviour
