After countless friends and family members have informed Sam that he exhibits signs of ADHD, the much-loved TV star has finally decided to take matters into his own hands, and has set out to get tested and explore what a possible diagnosis could mean for him.
The E4 documentary, called Sam Thompson: Is This ADHD? will see the reality star meet doctors, professionals and individuals diagnosed with ADHD as he learns more about the disorder before finding out whether he has it or not.

"This documentary is the most vulnerable I’ve felt in front of the camera, as I wanted to be totally open about how I react to people in situations, and whether these could be linked to ADHD.
"It has been an incredible, and at times, scary experience, but by exploring what’s been going on inside my head, I hope people can see that we should be more understanding before judging others.
"I also want to encourage people to learn more about themselves, and be proud of everything that makes them unique."
