Sherlock Holmes, The Cat in the Hat, Willy Wonka, Luna Lovegood... all of these characters have traits that feel somewhat familiar. 😊 Who would you add to this fun list?

The most blatant example of a fictional character on the ADHD spectrum is a very well known and very popular character indeed. He is impulsive, quick to anger, he is obsessed , he is forgetful, and distractible .His imagination kicks in and takes him away offen in mid conversation ! His name is Homer Simpson . There are so many examples , especially in the first 9 seasons of The Simpsons where Homer exemplifies the ADHD spectrum.

Lisa and Marge Simpson obviously don’t have it , they are there to provide some contrast.Homer does have a job, but he is incompetent at it.He’s got a beautiful heart as a Father. Bart is bright and inventive and full of ideas. There was one episode where he was taking a drug for ADD called “Focusin”. if you watch the first 9 seasons of the show with your knowledge of ADHD in mind, you’ll notice Homer and Bart are not stupid, the characters only seem like buffoons on the surface .
