Dr. Alex George has revealed he has been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Alex wrote: 'This isn't an easy one to write. I am sat on my bed and I'm not 100% sure where to start. 'I have suspected for most of my teenage and adult life that I'm not the same as a lot of the others around me. 'I struggled when others did not, and thrived where others found challenge. I have tried to hide and also conform for most of my life. Why? My fear has always been that I don't want to be labelled and judged.

'Why would I want to be known as having a 'disorder'.

'The tipping point for me to finally see someone was my Stompcast conversation with Toddla T, who gave me the strength to stop burying my head in the sand and look for some answers. 'Over the last few months I have been undergoing assessment for, and have now been 'diagnosed' with, 'Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. 'I still need time to reflect and gather my thoughts, but I really feel uncomfortable with the naming of this diagnosis.'

Always here for a chat mate' Alex concluded his post by thanking his followers for their 'love and kindness' as he comes to terms with the diagnosis. He said: 'Am I disordered?

Inability to listen or carry out instructions Most cases are diagnosed between six and 12 years old. Adults can also suffer, but there is less research into this. ADHD's exact cause is unclear but is thought to involve genetic mutations that affect a person's brain function and structure. Premature babies and those with epilepsy or brain damage are more at risk. ADHD is also linked to anxiety, depression, insomnia, Tourette's and epilepsy. There is no cure. A combination of medication and therapy is usually recommended to relieve symptoms and make day-to-day life easier.

Alex took part in series four of Love Island and was sent home just two days before the final. In an interview with MailOnline earlier this year, he praised ITV's new and improved mental health package that is offered to contestants, saying producers have become 'industry experts' after the show suffered several 'tragedies.' He was last year appointed Youth Mental Health Ambassador by the Prime Minster to raise the profile of mental health education and wellbeing in schools. He also sits on ITV's mental health advisory board for Love Island after two of the show's former contestants, Sophie Gradon, and Mike Thalassitis, took their own lives. Commenting on the aftercare Islanders are offered now, Alex said: 'I must say – a real pat on the back to ITV. 'There has been a huge – and I don't have to say that – a huge amount of progress made with the packages. 'In many ways they are industry leaders because when we have roundtables, we are sat there with a lot of different charity sectors and experts in different organisations. 'Love Island is so big and there have been a lot of difficult things to happen, clearly we've had tragedies.'
