Plot summary

ADHD is one of the most commonly diagnosed-and widely misunderstood-neurological conditions in the world today, affecting nearly 10% of kids and a rising number of adults. But what if having an ADHD brain is actually an asset? A growing number of innovators, entrepreneurs, CEO's, Olympic athletes, and award-winning artists have gone public about their diagnosis, saying that their ADHD, managed effectively, has played a vital role in their success. The Disruptors hears from many of those game-changing people speaking candidly about their ADHD, and intimately takes viewers inside a number of families as they navigate the challenges, and the surprising triumphs, of living with ADHD. The Disruptors takes an immersive look at our approach to ADHD that debunks the most harmful myths, and examines the flip side of this trait that ultimately offers a revelatory understanding of the diagnosis, and real hope for millions of kids, families and adults with ADHD.

A bit too much of showing purported positives of this disorder, but good intro to ADHD and validating for sufferers.

I wish the movie and even the trailer had less of the "ADHD has a lot of positives" or "ADHD can be a superpower"-type of commentary. It should be made clear that the featured celebrities are successful DESPITE having ADHD, not BECAUSE of it. Plus most of them are super intelligent or otherwise talented.While the intention to highlight the positives of ADHD is understandable, it's important to maintain a realistic perspective. ADHD presents major challenges that many people struggle with daily, and these challenges should not be sugarcoated.Success stories are inspiring, but they are NOT the norm for everyone with ADHD. More emphasis on realistic portrayals and the need for proper management and support could make the documentary more relatable and informative.

Do not show this to your ADHD children

I am an ADHD parent and have 3 kids one of whom is also an ADHD'er.. I was so relieved I pre screened this documentary and did not show it to my kids. The main focus of the movie and the most screen time is given to beleaguered parents who on balance seem strangely under-uneducated about ADHD or how to effectively work with and support their kids' neurotypes. To be clear, I could relate with a lot of what the parents were saying, but again they also seemed very ignorant and unaware of some things and I could never show this to my ADHD kid, without him coming away feeling like a burden. The film is a supposedly strengths based view of ADHD yet other than a couple 5 second celebrity cameo clips in the beginning it's 37 minutes into the film before any non-negative view is ever presented, and then it veers into negative territory again not long after. 100% of the kids in the film are in the public school system, yet the film is utterly silent on the role that 504s and IEPs, advocacy, and alternative educational approaches can play in supporting ADHD'er kids.

I would say it could be a cathartic film for a parent with zero to very minimal basic info, who just wants to know they are not alone, but don't go looking to this film for any usable information or resources on how to positively support people with ADHD in parenting, how to support them in their education, or as something to show to your kids to help them understand their neurotype.
