  • Newly diagnosed, felt embraced

    I’m just getting started but I’m so glad I didn’t miss out on this. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    “ADHD and” is awesome but goes too fast for me to keep up. I have to constantly pause and go back 15 seconds to relisten. Given this is for people with slow processing, I would like it to be designed for us to digest. The content is so good it’s worth the frustration.

  • Great podcast!

    Thank y’all so much for making a pod that helps me to understand myself better. I would love to hear more stories about overcoming more significant struggles with comorbid diagnoses - depression and anxiety are two big ones that come to mind, and autism (not me but ik a lot of people struggle with this one too).
