Ever felt like your brain runs on a different operating system? You’re not alone. Join us Martin (diagnosed in 2013) and Paul (late-diagnosed ADHD) as we explore the weird, wonderful, and wildly relatable realities of life after an ADHD diagnosis (official or self-diagnosed) - where suddenly, everything makes sense (and also… doesn’t).
In this episode, we unpack:
- ADHD sensory quirks (why your favorite spoon matters)
- Hypervigilance & emotional intelligence (reading rooms like a pro)
- The loneliness of unmasking and why diagnosis can feel like "ADHD on steroids"
- Neurodivergent burnout vs. "laziness" – spoiler: it’s not what you think
- Rejecting "normal" – why traditional productivity hacks fail ADHD brains
Whether you’re newly diagnosed, self-identifying, or just ADHD-curious, this is your invitation to ADHDville: a place where distractions are landmarks, detours are the main roads, and your brain isn’t broken! No really!
