Jessie J is embracing her truth.
The 36-year-old shared that, within the last three months, she’s been diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).
“It’s weird when you know you have been a little different and felt things differently your whole life,” the “Price Tag” singer wrote in her July 20 Instagram post. “And finally one day when you least expect it, someone really explains why and you can’t avoid it. ADHD has such a wide spectrum it’s like a mystery putting your version of it together, that’s how it’s felt for me. In really understanding ways to cope, excel and grow with it.”
For Jessie, her ADHD is her superpower. “As long as you look at it from the right perspective and have the right support and people around you that can navigate it with you,” she continued. “It’s empowered me and honestly sometimes has overwhelmed me all at the same time. I know there are so many people that are going through this same thing and I’m honestly just reaching out to hold your hand and because I need mine held too.”
