  • Incredibly Insightful and Relatable!

    I stumbled into this podcast through a Reddit post when searching for AuDHD-themed podcasts. Listening to Melissa is an amazing experience. I started at the beginning of her posts and in so many ways, she was saying many of the exact feelings and thoughts I’ve had now and over the course of my life. Thank you so much for your bravery and vulnerability; you have helped me to find my own truth through your words. ❤️❤️

  • Feels off and unrelatable

    I’ve listened to 4 or 5 episodes and I’m trying to give this person the benefit of the doubt but something feels disingenuous and I can’t shake that feeling. She keeps talking about “getting her diagnosis” as though it was like winning some kind of trophy that she had to work really hard and prove herself to earn. I believe people when they tell me who they are and I’m all for self-diagnosis. But I can’t shake the opportunistic vibes I keep getting from the host.
