I really enjoyed, most of I agree. But have a problem with opinion that ADHD is not pathological. I agree with people who say don’t take that out from ADHD because nobody will help otherwise… that’s sad true . Without support I mean good support, empathy and understanding we have a more chance to have pathological life path… I really appreciate your work I hope more people will try to understand and listen us.

The vast majority of ppl I've mentioned ADHD to believe EVERYONE has ADHD. It can get very discouraging so I have to remind myself that "they just don't know as much as they think they do." I'm adding an edit: I'll be 75 in a matter of a few days. I was diagnosed at 47. I've never heard anything that I could relate to as much as this video!! Thank you both so very much!! ☮️💞🙏🏼

Sometimes all Podcaster and coach's who are so focus on pumping us up with positivity..it feels like they're not really listening!

Thanks, Emily for tge realness. Feel the same when hearing podcasts with all tge adhd success stories...people with successful careers and mastering their adhd

This is very useful . I take a very similar approcah myself.

Seems to be a scheme "phoenix from the ashes" and then burning out after being diagnosed 😂

Such a great episode! Thanks so much

70 yo and new to all this and BOY HOWDIE do I have traits. I've heard women get down over not realizing sooner but personally I'm thrilled! I also have experienced that terrible bottom-out depression that thankfully I have never been reactive in that way. Taking notes on meds, med combos, voooo breathing & breath work, chewing gum for blabbering, journaling again. Making friends YES ME TOO! (And my overactive sense of justice enforces me not to be on Facebook, X, and collaterally Snapchat, Instagram.) Retired in November, so interesting mentioning The Villages. Looked into it and really it's just too perfect! (what trait is that?) I had never heard of a Geriatric Psychiatrist, taking pointers on ADHD/trauma coaches and good questions to ask when interviewing professionals to help. Thank you gals for being 'point-man' for me in my journey along with other sisters a step ahead. Our race is in my imagination a relay race featuring a baton. Reach back, bring your relay partner forward and let the baton go. Rinse, repeat, rinse repeat.

Thank you, loved this :)

Love color feature on llama life... great product and can't wait until it's available on Android!

Omg!!! Kathleen Nadeau! ❤❤❤

It sounds like your sister and you are very similar to my sister and me.

I wish I’d had all of this information when my son was in school. He ended up dropping out. That being said he’s a successful 23 year old today. I keep advocating for him to get a diagnosis so that he can work on finding systems. I wasn’t diagnosed until 50 and wish I had workable systems in place when I was younger.

Omg thank you for that! “No, Idk where I was going with that.” I felt so SEEN!!!!

My dad is still trying to convince me that i dont have adhd at 38. For a while i believed him over doctors and went untreated.

This sounds like what myself and my partner are talking a lot about at the moment... As an adult I'm currently engaged in my unmasking journey... For my partner... They don't understand why I'm "acting out". I honestly just don't know how to explain it to them anymore..

I can deeply and surprisingly relate. Being missed/misdiagnosed/mistreated for all of my life (until last year) pretty sure I have the supposed "female version of ADHD" and so do a similarly large set of missed and late-diagnosed (and un-diagnosed) men who often eventually have trouble late in Life (the overtly hyperactive ones are more likely to get diagnosed and/or get into trouble younger). Not just ADHD> Having life-long undiagnosed ASD/ADHD (AuDHD) and ending up being attacked for it is confusing and exhausting. Being twice-exceptional might explain the masking. I had 4 cancers since childhood - and it was the fourth one that caused hypercalcemia and that could have upset the ASD/ADHD balance. Lack of diagnosis destroyed my family and marriage - even now I get no understanding - everyone else is playing the victim (of my very rare overt symptoms) but it is clear that battling undiagnosed ADHD is the bigger problem. Work in progress.

Thank you so much!!

Wowza.. FYI, I tried doing ABA in my early 20s and was just like NOPE! Just not my jam. Thanks for sharing these stats.

Wow 50percent have PTSD from ABA. Ugh and I wanna know how much is CPTSD.

Can so relate. Bane of my existence. Would love to hear more about PDA and ableism. So debilitating 😢

Loved this interview! Would love to hear more about PDA - and more from Connie

Thank you

Cuando lo voy a poder comprar en castellano?

Omg I've never found a video that more perfectly describes my life and relationship with finances. I spent this morning discouraged as I tried to sort through my finances again and was really encouraged and helped by your video. Thank you both so much!

Richard McNalley? My brother was Richard and he went to McNally High in OC CA. I think he was undiagnosed ADHD and he was on Ritalin when young for a time around 1968 I can totally relate to the social media thing.

“Wait, what was the question?!” 😅😂

So interesting!

I have adhd ocd cptsd fibro hyper mobilty arthritis eupd under active thyroid ibs acid reflux its madness its all connected theres not enuff help out there for people with fibro its disgusting really

Exactly what I have been going thru. Was sexually abused by others, also neglected and emotionally abused and part of that was being told to relax and don't worry about things when I really just wanted someone to talk to and relate with. Lots of narcissists in my life. Finally got away from it all 3 years ago and now trying to figure it all out. I am on a 3-year waiting list for ADHD here in the UK (moved from SoCal) as autism was ruled out since it did not seem to begin as a child.

Dr lenz is high up in this

I feel hyper but also tired at the same time. When I wake up, it's time to get up no matter how tired I am.

This is so valuable

Where is there a forum for us to discuss hacks to help us handle housekeeping or care tasks? I need to see suggestions written down, and be able to give a response, and share with a community that kind of understands.

My mother says I was not hyperactive as a child. Or hypersensitive, but yet as an adult I am very hyper and sensitive. As a child I was depressed and anxious and treated for both for 2 decades before I was diagnosed age 36. Game changing for me personally (although many people in my life disagree that it’s a proper diagnosis due to I’m organized and don’t loose things) 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Such a great convo. Thanks to you both ❤ Love the idea of Pelagic btw. Have you thought about the idea of a children’s book on land brain/ocean brain @matilda?

Not sure why the audio sounds much different on podcast app. Really hard for me to focus (ADHD) because I can hear music in background in the app 🙃

Sheesh. So sad. This has been my story forever.

Wonderful conversation, THANK YOU BOTH.

When I was in college, I wrote a paper about Shakespeare arguing that the difference in comedy and tragedy is just how much we imbue a given event or goal with a sense of its rightness. More, or more absolute, rightness leads to a greater sense of tragedy if the goal isn't achieved or the event goes anogher way. It seems there's a lot of overlap between this and KC's philosophy.

ADHD video... Over an hour. No chapters??

I was never obedient and always preferred to do things my own way, but it’s been over a year and I don’t crave a drop of alcohol, the key difference was that I didn’t suffer withdrawal after go’ogling and reading Steffon Barkload, not even within the first days after I quit and told no one, did not need AA meetings or meds either.

My favorite alternative to pathological demand avoidance is Persistent Drive for Autonomy 😊

As far as tidying.. about 10 years ago.. when I lived in a 2 story home with a finished basement(& laundry in the basement).. I realized I spent a big part of my day TRANSPORTING things around the house; & in and out of the house- kids, food, etc…😂so I learned to always take things from floor to floor when doing things in my house👍

One more comment: I made the mistake of telling a group of high schoolers that I used “Attention Surplus Syndrome”. From then on, they wanted to know how my ASS was doing.

Grey mode !
