Do you have trouble getting organized, get distracted easily, have angry outbursts, always show up late and are a master at procrastination? If any or all of that sounds like you, take a listen to this episode where Laura & Jess talk through what Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is and what their journey has been like living with it unbeknownst to them for over 30 years vs what life is like now that they have been medicated for a few months. In this episode the girls talk about what lead to their self discovery of ADHD, their symptoms of ADHD, how they talked to their doctors about it and what differences they notice now that they have a diagnosis and are being medicated. They briefly discuss the medication they are on now compared to what the options were back when they were kids and dismantle the stereotypical views they had of what a person with ADHD looked like.
As you listen to this episode, if any of what is discussed resonates with you or someone you know, reach out to your family doctor to have a discussion. Jess & Laura are not medical experts, but are more than happy to share their experiences with the goal of helping others begin advocating for their own mental wellness journeys.
