Ryan Keats is the creator behind ADHDinos a webcomic series that transforms his personal experiences with ADHD into relatable and humorous stories that resonate with many people worldwide. After being diagnosed with ADHD as an adult Ryan initially felt isolated until he found a supportive online community. This connection inspired him to create ADHDinos a series that insightfully and humorously depicts the everyday challenges of living with ADHD.
The comics began as a list of struggles Ryan experienced, which he then turned into entertaining and relatable stories to help others feel seen and understood. As Ryan explains, I think the real value of the comics is the small nuggets of information contained within them. Since its creation, ADHDinos has become an essential resource for those living with ADHD offering not just humor but valuable insights as well. Ryan’s journey of self-discovery and acceptance through his comics has encouraged many people to seek diagnoses and better understand their behaviors. He proudly shares I’ve almost lost count of the number of people who said they sought a diagnosis because of the comics. That’s cool to me.

I have several hundred new ideas saved in my notes, and they’re piling up much faster than I can use them Ryan shared. Sometimes, if I feel a comic isn’t quite up to par I let it sit in the drafts for a while until I either delete it or find a way to improve it.

Ryan said that some comics come quickly, and others change a lot from draft to finished comic. It’s a little unpredictable, but some translate well to paper while others don’t. On the other hand, some comics that start as a little lackluster stumble into a single change which makes them among my favorites.
