Ty Pennington

As a hyperactive child, the bubbly host of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition turned to creative outlets to channel his impulsivity and tendency toward distraction.

“ADHD hurts your confidence. You feel like you really can’t succeed because you don’t make good grades … that really kind of affects you later in life, especially when you’re trying to get a job and your confidence level is low,” Ty says.

However, he can now appreciate the role of medicine in ADHD control (he became a spokesman for the ADHD medication Vyvanse), and has embraced his zany side by applying himself to ambitious carpentry and design-based projects, including his cleverly named L.A. design boutique, ADHD (Art Design Home Décor).
