To use these templates, simply copy and paste a statement into your community platform and ask members to reply with 'Fact' or 'Fiction.' Encourage them to share their reasoning or personal experiences. After some discussion, reveal the correct answer and, if possible, provide a credible source. Rotate topics frequently to maintain interest, and invite members to submit their own Fact or Fiction ideas.
These templates are suitable for all platforms. On forums and Facebook groups, post as a standalone thread and pin for visibility. On chat apps, use polls or quick reactions for rapid engagement. For Instagram or TikTok, turn statements into interactive story polls or short videos, and reveal the answer in the next slide or comment. Adapt your format to match the platform's strengths.
Focus your Fact or Fiction questions on clarifying pervasive myths—such as 'ADHD only affects children' or 'People with ADHD are just lazy.' Use evidence-based sources to debunk these misconceptions while framing the answers in a positive, strengths-based light. Avoid phrasing that could be interpreted as judgmental or shaming, and encourage open discussion about the diversity of ADHD experiences.
Absolutely! Fact or Fiction prompts like 'ADHD and anxiety have identical symptoms' can spark valuable discussion about overlapping but distinct traits. Be sure to provide nuanced answers that clarify the differences and similarities, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis and professional assessment.
When posting about medication, ensure your questions are accurate and current, e.g., 'Fact or Fiction: ADHD stimulants always lead to addiction.' Provide clear, evidence-based explanations, and note that individual experiences vary. Always remind your community that medical advice should be tailored by healthcare professionals.
Use prompts like 'Fact or Fiction: People with ADHD just need to try harder to stay organized' to open discussion about executive dysfunction. Highlight the neurological underpinnings of ADHD and practical strategies for coping. Encourage sharing of personal experiences to normalize challenges and foster mutual support.
Definitely include questions about hallmark ADHD traits such as time blindness ('Fact or Fiction: People with ADHD are always late because they don't care about time') or hyperfocus. Frame these posts around real-life scenarios (e.g., missing appointments or getting absorbed in a hobby) to prompt member stories and validation.
Use clear, concise language and avoid overly complex sentences. Keep each Fact or Fiction statement focused on a single concept, and provide a brief, bulleted explanation in the answer. Consider using visual aids, such as infographics or emojis, and offer recaps for longer threads to support members with working memory challenges.
