Ingeborg Senneset // Var det ADHD det var?

WAS IT ADHD? A personal and topical lecture about ADHD, diagnoses, prejudices and what it is like to live with a head that does not always follow the recipe. Ingeborg Senneset is a speaker, freelance journalist and trained nurse. This evening she will discuss her own history and everyday life with ADHD, while also questioning how society uses medical diagnoses to explain human behavior. Senneset has published the bestsellers "Anorectic" (Cappelen Damm 2017) and "Dictionary for survival" (Egmont 2022). In the fall of 2025, the critically acclaimed biography "Så mye hadde jeg" by and Paralympic champion Birgit Skarstein was also published. She has been open about a life with anorexia and OCD, as well as three years as a psychiatric patient. But for many she is best known from debates on topics such as vaccine resistance, monarchy, anti-Semitism, antibiotic resistance, alternative medicine and freedom of expression. Senneset is often featured in articles, on TV, radio and podcasts as an influencer and public debater. Her own channels reach several hundred thousand followers and are used daily for public education and debate. She is also a volunteer in the freedom of expression organization Norsk Pen. Ingeborg Senneset has received, among other things, the Golden Pen of the Year at the Vixen Awards, NTB's Language Prize, the Mensa Prize of the Year, the Egmont Prize for Editorial Publication of the Year and the Fredrikke Prize, as well as the Stiklestad Profile of the Year.
