flag Highland councillor Andrew Jarvie, diagnosed with ADHD and autism at 27, advocates for faster ADHD diagnoses after his own struggles.

flag Highland councillor Andrew Jarvie, 33, has revealed he was diagnosed with ADHD and autism at 27 after years of undiagnosed struggles with focus and motivation despite strong academic performance. flag Raised in the U.S. and later moving to Scotland, he noticed worsening distractibility in larger classrooms, with early signs overlooked. flag Elected at 25, the pressure of public office led him to seek answers. flag After two years of hesitation, he received a dual diagnosis and began medication that brought unprecedented calm and clarity. flag He now manages symptoms with medication, routines, journaling, and mindfulness, turning challenges into strengths. flag His advocacy helped pass a council amendment to reduce delays in ADHD diagnoses.
