Paris Hilton speaks about her ADHD journey

Paris Hilton explained her journey of growing with ADHD and her thought while writing a song about it. She mentioned, "I thought about whether it would be weird to write a song called ADHD, I was like I never heard a popstar sing about that and she (Sia) was like, 'that's why its so empowering'. When I was 13, no one was talking about ADHD and even if they were, it was like negative, 'Oh, you are a bad kid, you can't focus, you are dumb.' That's all I knew about it, I didn't know all the good things about it. And that's why I really wanted to spread the message to people all around the world with ADHD that I wouldn't be the woman I am today without it. Its what gives me creativity, its what gives me a million ideas, it makes me take risks and have the courage."Take a look at the entire interview below:
