  • Perfect for adult ADHDers

    I love listening to this podcast! True to form with my ADHD, I have commitment issues when it comes to picking a podcast, TV show, or movie to start bc I'm afraid I won't like it and will have wasted time or that I'd get distracted and never come back to it, etc etc etc. However, this podcast caught my attention immediately and I can't stop listening. The host is so relatable and I love that he doesn't pretend to be a medical professional. He keeps it real and brings valuable topics to the show,... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

WS87 How to Slow Down to Overcome ADHD Dysregulation and Overwhelm with Jenna Free
Q: What are some strategies to remember to slow down in those panic body moments?
Free recommends having a reason to regulate, using a simple visual reminder at first, and repeatedly noticing rushing and slowing the body while continuing the task. She says beliefs such as “I'm behind” also need attention.
WS87 How to Slow Down to Overcome ADHD Dysregulation and Overwhelm with Jenna Free
Q: What are some tips for somebody who wants to write a book to avoid that drowning, overwhelmed feeling or stay focused on the task?
Free says regulation helps people return to the present, see tasks more accurately and focus on one small step at a time, such as writing one word at a time.
WS86 Is ADHD Overdiagnosed? ADHD Diagnosis, Trauma, and Getting Started with Dr. J. Russell Ramsay
Q: What do you say to reports that ADHD is overdiagnosed and that medications are overprescribed?
The guest argues that while there are reports and concerns, the data show ADHD remains a leading diagnosis with significant persistence from childhood into adulthood; the rise in diagnoses in recent years is partly a correction for long-standing under-diagnosis and better diagnostic protocols, not a simple overdiagnosis issue.
WS85 Dr. Stephen Faraone: What the Evidence Actually Says About ADHD.
Q: What is the process for someone to get a proper diagnosis?
Diagnosis requires an expert evaluation by a clinician who interviews the patient, conducts a thorough assessment across multiple life areas, and uses established diagnostic criteria rather than relying solely on screening tools or internet questionnaires.
WS85 Dr. Stephen Faraone: What the Evidence Actually Says About ADHD.
Q: Are we better on medications, stimulants, and so on or not?
The research consistently shows FDA-approved ADHD medications are effective at reducing symptoms for many people, though not everyone; with proper guidance, many adults experience meaningful improvements, while meds are usually best paired with skills training and other supports.
