The actress Isis Valverde revealed how she deals with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), stating that she needs to move her body to organize her mind. She was diagnosed in childhood and found in weight training and yoga ways to incorporate movement into her daily life, as part of her care routine for the disorder.
Isis's account joins that of other personalities who, in recent years, have decided to speak publicly about ADHD. This greater exposure of the disorder by celebrities and influencers has helped bring the discussion outside of consulting rooms, where it is still surrounded by doubts, prejudices, and misdiagnoses.
The interview also mentions that Isis Valverde is preparing a musical about Hilda Furacão and talks about plans for a second child at the request of her firstborn, Rael. Additionally, the article references an investigation by Bruna Marquezine about ADHD and autism, which brings up the debate about late diagnosis in women.
