Keyworth, who was born in Aberystwyth, statedADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) was not spoken about much in the area while growing up there in the 1990s.
“And definitely not a lot of people were speaking about it in terms of women, because it looks very different,” she said.
“I remember teachers saying ‘you’re not trying enough’, and I was crying because I was trying my very best – but I just couldn’t do ‘this thing’. I’m writing, and I’m not very good behind a desk.”
She added: “Almost every school report I have says that ‘Gwyneth dreams and doesn’t concentrate, is talkative and has a lot of ideas but can’t finish reading’.”
Keyworth statedshe eventually received helped from teachers at school who gave her more time to complete work.
“Now you look back on it, it’s so obvious,” he statedabout her ADHD diagnosis, which she received “about two years ago”.
