Got ADHD? Do you struggle? Have you recognized how difficult it is to plan, make decisions and manage time?  In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, ADHD coach Jeff Copper sits down with Dr. John Eastwood for a thought-provoking discussion on the true nature of ADHD. While often perceived as a deficit of attention, ADHD is increasingly understood as a challenge of self-regulation. Throughout the conversation, they explore the role of working memory, the mental effort required for thinking, and the compelling urge to escape when tasks become overwhelming. They shed light on a critical insight: ADHD is not just about focus—it's about making thinking itself more manageable, which in turn supports self-regulation. If you struggle with executive functioning, this episode offers valuable perspectives you won't want to miss. Listen for an open and insightful exchange that could change the way you understand ADHD.  Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self-help Internet radio shows focusing on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and attention deficit disorder, including managing symptoms of ADHD in adults with ADD or adults who have children with ADHD. Attention Talk Radio, hosted by Jeff Copper, attention and ADHD coach, is designed to help adults (particularly those diagnosed with or impacted by attention deficit disorder or its symptoms) in life or business who are stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated to help them get unstuck and moving forward by opening their minds to pay attention to what works.

ADHD is an executive functioning impairment. The major executive function is self-regulation. There are two things you need to regulate: one is your attention, and the other is your emotions. Whether you realize it or not, when your attention is dysregulated, so are your emotions.  In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, ADHD and attention coach Jeff Copper (https://www.digcoaching.com) talks to mindfulness ADHD coach Dana Crews (https://secondarrowadhdcoaching.com) about the nature of emotional self-regulation and what's involved in regulating emotions. Jeff and Dana confront the big challenges associated with emotional regulation, identify what can be done, and help you emotionally deal with the fact that there's no easy way getting around it—this is a challenge. But with the right type of support, it can be done.  Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self-help Internet radio shows focusing on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and attention deficit disorder, including managing symptoms of ADHD in adults with ADD or adults who have children with ADHD.

Rachel Griffiths says she just got through her "peak mid-hell years" and she's here to tell us how. The actor, producer, and director has had many eras - from the "fast start" of Muriel's Wedding to being a Hollywood awards darling, a big-deal US TV star, the director of the Australian classic movie Ride Like A Girl, the co-creator of Total Control and now, the star of the TV show Madam. Through all that, she was also wrestling with the relatable MID dramas - parenting teens and young adults, a diagnosis that made sense of so much, caring for ageing relatives and trying to keep a long-term marriage going. No wonder, as she tells host Holly Wainwright, she and her husband needed a sabbatical.

In this episode of the Soaring Child podcast, Dana Kay, a board-certified holistic health and nutrition practitioner, tackles some of the most common myths about ADHD. In honor of ADHD Awareness Month, Dana debunks misconceptions about diet, exercise, parenting, gender, and treatment options, providing parents with responses they can use when someone voices one of the common ADHD myths. Whether you're new to ADHD or a seasoned advocate, this episode offers valuable tools to navigate conversations and better support children with ADHD.

"Diet alone isn't a magical cure for ADHD, but it's an incredibly potent tool in managing symptoms." "Exercise is not just a distraction; it's a powerful natural way to support brain health in kids with ADHD." "Girls with ADHD often go undiagnosed because their symptoms are less overt than boys'." "You don't 'outgrow' ADHD—it's a lifelong condition that requires ongoing management." "Medication is one option for ADHD, but it's not the only one. There are effective natural alternatives." "ADHD is a real, medically recognized condition, not a reflection of parenting skills." "Hyperfocus in ADHD can lead to intense concentration on activities of interest, but it comes with its challenges." "ADHD affects all aspects of life, not just academics—from social interactions to long-term career prospects." "Understanding the realities of ADHD is key to supporting our kids in the best way possible." Dana Kay Resources:

I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was in college. While I'd like to think that was like 5 years ago, it was actually a lot longer. It was much harder to get a diagnosis back then. In fact, the ADHD diagnosis process was different 5 years ago when I started my podcast.It's 2024 now, and I'm thrilled to say it's easier than ever before for adults to get an ADHD diagnosis. This isn't me saying it's easier to FOOL clinicians into falsely diagnosing you. I mean it's easier for people who have ADHD to get an accurate diagnosis. How so?We've got more access to info than we've ever had. People are more willing to share their experiences with ADHD, which is helping lessen the stigma around mental health.The medical field is finally catching up with science. It wasn't until the '90s that doctors realized most children do NOT grow out of ADHD. Adults are finally getting diagnosed!We're living in a highly digital world, which means we're now able to get assessed and treated online. This is huge.So, how do you go about getting diagnosed with ADHD? In this podcast episode, I'm sharing the 3 steps you need to take if you're ready for a formal assessment, including links for an online diagnosis.PS - if you know somebody who suspects they have ADHD but hasn't gotten a diagnosis or been evaluated for it, send them this podcast episode to help them gain some clarity.Shownotes links:The ASRS-5 assessmentOnline ADHD resources for the USDoneCircle MedicalADHD OnlineOnline ADHD resources for CanadaFridaCentre for ADHD Awareness, CanadaFind a clinician who can help you across state linesPsypact mapHang out with me on Instagram HERE.AG1 by Athletic Greens.
