I’m OK, You’re OK, We’re OK: Living with AD(H)D in InfoSec

I was diagnosed with AD(H)D almost four years ago, aged 44. Getting diagnosed and being able to get medicated meant the world to me; suddenly I understood all those supposedly random, weird symptoms and I was able to function remarkably better. Understanding also meant that I got more insight to why it was becoming increasingly harder for me to get and keep a job. Something had to happen. I’ve been an infosec professional for almost 20 years but after my diagnosis I moved to community marketing which basically meant doing the sparetime thing I love as a living. In December 2022 I was fired again; not sustainable. My (wise) wife said “You can’t talk about having ADHD and the challenges you have without acting upon them”. Inspired by this I decided to get the ultimate freedom and go freelance after realizing that would work best for me. By doing this talk I hope to spread knowledge about ADHD, break down taboos and inspire peers to better understand themselves, get help if they need it and to inspire others to talk about their challenges openly, ultimately leading to a better life with whatever neurodiversity they may have.
