For this last episode of ADHD-ish during ADHD Awareness Month, host Diann Wingert welcomes Alan P. Brown, acclaimed ADHD coach and creator of the ADD Crusher program, for a candid and practical conversation about the everyday habits that make ADHD more challenging. Focusing on making ADHD easier to manage (and avoiding the traps we so often fall into), Diann and Alan break down what really sabotages our brains and share actionable tools to turn things around.Alan shares practical tips and science-backed insights on why sugar and simple carbs can sabotage focus, how movement (not just "exercise") is essential for managing ADHD, and why consistent sleep hygiene is often the missing link for better mental clarity. They also get real about the seductive pull of screens, the pitfalls of "revenge bedtime procrastination," and how to set up healthier habits even if you struggle with planning ahead.Episode Overview & Key TopicsWhy Sugar and Simple Carbs Are So Tempting (and Toxic)The neuroscience of sugar, dopamine, and ADHD brainsWhy people with ADHD reach for snacks more oftenPortable proteins, smart snacks, and what to keep out of your pantryThe "Immediate Gratification" TrapHow impulsivity and habit shape eating and lifestyle choicesSimple prepping strategies for making healthier choices easierExercise Without the PressureHow movement supports the ADHD brain (hint: it's more than fitness!)The real benefits: BDNF (“Miracle-Gro for the brain”), focus, and moodHow to start (or restart) with what you're “willing” and “able” to doThe Underrated Power of SleepHow sleep deprivation mimics ADHD and worsens executive functionThe role of “revenge bedtime procrastination” and the “second wind” Huberman Lab-inspired tips for honoring circadian rhythm and better restScreen Sucking & The Modern ADHD SaboteurHow screens (phones, apps, streaming) are addictive false friendsThe myth of “restful scrolling” and how screens prevent true breaksGuilt-free social media windows and restorative breaksQuick Self-Check: Alan's One-Simple-Step ApproachRate yourself in three key areas: diet, sleep, and exercise (scale of 0–10)Identify your lowest score and add ONE actionable change Use sticky notes and gentle accountability to turn intention into habitsGuest Bio: Alan P.

Have you ever pushed yourself to the limit -- skipping sleep, meals, or anything that doesn't feel “urgent” -- in order to crush your To-Do List… and then crashed for days? You're not alone. It's ADHD Awareness Month, and in the third episode of this four-part series, we're unpacking the Overdrive-to-Burnout Cycle—why it happens (even if you don't have ADHD) and how to finally step out of it without losing your drive.What You'll Learn:Why the go-go-go-then-crash pattern isn't a time management issue (and what it really is instead).How dopamine, interest-based nervous systems, and executive functioning shape this burnout cycle.The role of interoception (aka, your ability to notice what your body's telling you) in preventing burnout.How to spot early warning signs before your body forces you to stop.Realistic ways to interrupt the pattern—without losing your drive or productivity.Progress over perfection, always.If This Resonates… If you're ready to stop swinging between overdrive and shutdown, I'd love to help. Book a free consult and we'll map out how to build sustainable productivity that actually works for your brain. You'll leave with a clear plan and real next steps.

In this week's Talking Health, Poppy is joined by Dr Alice Ashby, Consultant Psychiatrist and Associate Medical Director at the London Psychiatry Clinic, and Jennifer, who has ADHD and was treated by Dr Ashby. As October marks ADHD Awareness Month, with this year's theme "The Many Faces of ADHD," the episode explores how the condition affects people of all backgrounds, genders, and ages.

In honour of ADHD Awareness Month, we're excited to share a special short episode on Adult ADHD, presented by Dr. Smita Verma.The concept of normality is pivotal in diagnosing adult ADHD, as common behaviours like distractibility or impulsivity, universal to human experience, only warrant a diagnosis when they cause significant functional impairment in specific contexts. A global shortage of ADHD stimulants reflects rising demand, with social media platforms like TikTok being one of the contributing factors. On TikTok, #adhdtest videos often oversimplify ADHD, as evident during my research on the quality of information on #adhdtest, presenting normal behaviours like forgetfulness as diagnostic, while trends like “SLAY-DHD” glamorise the condition, encouraging self-diagnosis. Diagnosing adult ADHD is complex due to subjective symptom assessment, necessitating careful differentiation between normal responses to modern life's demands and pathological symptoms. Clinicians must consider cultural, personal, and environmental contexts, using collateral input to validate childhood impairments and rule out conditions like anxiety or burnout, ensuring accurate diagnosis and judicious stimulant use, given their uncertain long-term safety. Dr Smita Verma, MBBS is a psychiatry registrar at Waikato Hospital's Mental Health & Addiction Services in Hamilton, New Zealand, currently pursuing a Certificate in Adult Psychiatry through the RANZCP training program. Topic suggestion:If you have a topic suggestion or would like to participate in a future episode of Psych Matters, we'd love to hear from you.Please contact us by email at: psychmatters.feedback@ranzcp.orgDisclaimer:This podcast is provided to you for information purposes only and to provide a broad public understanding of various mental health topics.

This week, Sam and Katie sit down with presenter Katrina Ridley to explore what it's like to live with ADHD symptoms before you have a diagnosis. For ADHD Awareness Month, Katrina shares her journey of suspicion, self-doubt and resilience, from the first signs that something felt different to the challenges of managing undiagnosed ADHD in her relationships and career.Together, they dig into the messy realities of waiting for an assessment, the fears of “what if I don't have it”, and the relief that comes from finally having language for your struggles. Along the way, they reflect on how ADHD can be masked by success, misunderstood by family, and hidden under depression or burnout.From moments of self-sabotage to the everyday tools that really help, this is a candid and heartfelt look at life just before diagnosis- and why sharing stories like Katrina's matters so much during ADHD Awareness Month.And don't miss Friday's bonus episode, where Katrina returns to share how her assessment went and how she's doing now post-diagnosis.New episodes of You're Wrong About ADHD are available every Wednesday and Friday.

In honor of ADHD Awareness Month, we are revisiting our conversation with Jodie Sweetin! Jodie Sweetin (Full House & Fuller House) discusses her work as “Stephanie Tanner” on Full House, living with ADHD and how she thinks it has helped her, and the importance of showing up as the parent you needed to have yourself. She explains how therapy and sobriety allow her to be a better parent and the importance of honesty in a parent-child relationship. Mayim and Jodie consider the need for prison reform after Jodie opens up about being adopted as a baby after she was born within the prison system. They discuss coping mechanisms in nature vs nurture and share their earliest childhood memories. Jodie reveals the top 5 things that keep her centered and ways she redirects feelings of wanting to run away into efforts of self-care.

Its estimated that 10 percent of people in Ireland have access to ADHD treatment. But those numbers don't reflect the current demand. With an increase of demand has resulted in a shortage of services for those with ADHD, people are now waiting long periods for even an assessment. As it is ADHD Awareness Month, two people who are here to shine a light on all of this and more are Ethan Lloyd, a young person with ADHD and Dr Michelle Hill, consultant psychiatrist.

Get ready to Learn and Connect with us! In this episode of ADHD Support Talk Radio, co-hosts Lynne Edris and Tara McGillicuddy take you behind the scenes of the 16th Annual ADHD Awareness Expo, happening throughout October 2025. This month-long, free online event has become the flagship ADHD community gathering for adults worldwide. You'll hear how the Expo began, why it's still thriving 16 years later, and what makes it so different from other ADHD summits and online events. Lynne also previews her Expo session, From Chaos to C.A.L.M., where she shares practical tools to help you reset from overwhelm into clarity and control when you need it most. What You'll Learn in This Episode: The surprising origin story of the ADHD Awareness Expo What makes the Expo unique (and why it's lasted 16 years) How extended access supports ADHD brains better than the usual 24-hour summit model Why community connection through watch parties and networking makes such a difference A preview of Lynne's Expo session: From Chaos to C.A.L.M.

Too many entrepreneurs think they're “lazy” or “broken” when they can't follow rigid, step-by-step strategies. But here's the truth - if you've got ADHD tendencies (diagnosed or not), those strategies simply weren't built for your brain. And yet when we design ADHD-friendly systems? Convergent thinkers benefit too.In this episode, I'm kicking off a special ADHD Awareness Month series by sharing why I'm dedicating October to this conversation, what my research uncovered from ADHD entrepreneurs, and how these struggles show up in business.Whether you're a service provider, coach, consultant, or creative, diagnosed with ADHD or not, you'll hear yourself in these stories. Because at the end of the day, these aren't just ADHD struggles. They're entrepreneurial struggles.You'll Learn:Why ADHD-friendly strategies often work better for all entrepreneursWhat my research revealed about ADHD struggles in business (time blindness, energy swings, demand avoidance, idea overload, and more)How menopause and a dysregulated nervous system can intensify ADHD symptoms for women in businessWhy building flexible structures creates clarity, focus, and results for both divergent and convergent thinkersThis is the real truth about business growth - when you create systems that work for your brain, you remove the shame and finally build momentum.

October is awareness month for Breast Cancer and ADHD. Ok yes the blush pink Sunday Basket® color is back in stock (while supplies last). BUT, I want to suggest that you use this Sunday Basket® as a way to remind you of people in your community that have lost someone to breast cancer, are facing a breast cancer diagnosis, are supporting someone in their breast cancer journey, or who have survived breast cancer! It is so important that we continue to take care of ourselves too. Let this Sunday Basket® remind you of your health goals and routine doctor visits to prevent or get early detection of disease. I also want to inspire community and support for the breast cancer awareness community. Be aware of someone who could use your support. And speaking of support, the Sunday Basket® supports those who have ADHD. ADHD is so cool because of the ability to think differently but it really becomes a struggle in organization. We have all these modifications for kids in school but where is it in the real world once they've graduated? As someone with ADHD, you learn “work arounds” so survive school due to compromised executive functioning skills. And so then in the real world, let the Sunday Basket® be your work around to actually succeeding in organization. In my book, written in 2016, “How ADHD affects Home Organization”, I explain exactly how to do this. And that is why from 10/1-10/5 this book is completely free on Kindle. And if you have enjoyed and learned from this book before will you do me a small favor? Would you re-download it and leave a review? Pretty please? I love helping and supporting my community!  EPISODE RESOURCES: Sunday Basket® How ADHD affects Home Organization Kindle: How ADHD affects Home Organization Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter Did you enjoy this episode?

How can your organization provide support and resources to a vast community of members in many different situations? How do you build connections between members of different ages, genders, ethnicities, experiences, and backgrounds?In this episode of Associations Thrive, host Joanna Pineda interviews Laurie Kulikosky, CEO of Children and Adults with ADHD (CHADD). Laurie discusses:How CHADD is the largest U.S. organization for ADHD support, with a mission to empower individuals with ADHD by providing evidence-based resources and advocating for inclusivity and rights.How CHADD's resources support millions of Americans with ADHD, including individuals, families, healthcare professionals, and educators.How CHADD stands out by focusing on scientifically validated ADHD information. Unlike many online resources, CHADD provides credible, medically reviewed resources, partly funded by a CDC grant.How she went from working with an SAT tutoring company to taking roles at the Consumer Technology Association and the American Society of Transplant Surgeons before becoming CHADD's CEO.How her executive coaching helped clarify her career path to CEO and how not everyone needs to aspire to be a CEO, and the importance of other roles in associations.How CHADD's membership spans both the general public and professionals. It functions partly as a nonprofit providing resources on ADHD to people who may not be formal members.The impact of her predecessor, a professional interim CEO, who helped stabilize CHADD and set up a foundational roadmap for her role.How the current leadership at CHADD has focused on identifying and implementing strategies for growth, especially following the rapid changes brought by the pandemic.CHADD's new program that offers training and resources for companies interested in supporting neurodivergent employees.The International Conference on ADHD that CHADD is co-hosting, which brings together professionals, healthcare providers, individuals with ADHD, and their supporters.How during ADHD Awareness Month, Chad collaborates with other organizations to amplify ADHD awareness and provide up-to-date resources.How CHADD is working with a coalition to create the first adult ADHD diagnosis and treatment guidelines in the U.S.How CHADD is preparing for another significant year of growth, aiming to expand support to more adults and offer continuous resources and advocacy.References:ADHD Awareness Month, October 2024International Conference on ADHD, In-person November 14-16, 2024 in Anaheim, CA, Virtual March 7-8, 2025Free Resources and Support through CHADD's National Resource Center on ADHD Become a member of CHADDDonate to support CHADD's work

For the finale of Season 3 I've swapped roles with Dr James Brown of the ADHD Adults Podcast and ADHDadultUK Charity - the 1st ever ADHDAF guest - to answer the questions I've been asking for 2.5 years to conclude the season which almost didn't get released & ADHD Awareness Month 2024. Whilst we explore the themes of Internalised misogyny, ableism and RSD, this lengthy, side-questy and VERY sweary (sorry Mum) chinwag is a celebration of launching stage one of ADHDAF+ Charity and  ADHDAF Emporium and all that's been overcome to continue ADHDAF solo for a whole year. And it is an ENORMOUS THANK YOU to all who have supported this podcast, the socials, the online peer support community, the live events, the retreat and ADHDAF Day.  I can't say thank you enough to you all!- As explained in the episode(!!!) this cover photo is by the incredible @summonfirehotography- Editing and jingle by @sessionzservices - The playlist for all season 3 guests 'ADHD Song', including my ADHDAF Anthem is available to listen to HEREI must admit I was cringing at the amount of times I swear in this episode - likely because it turned into a relaxed conversation between two friends. HOWEVER, I realised that if I edited the swearing out, I would only be doing so to appease my own internalised misogyny! So I've kept the swears in for that reason, and because it is symbolic of all that I've put into ADHDAF since April '22 - every single 'eff' I have to give! :)THANKS SO MUCH to James for interviewing me and for all of his support from day dot - a man who has done DOUBLE the ammont of live shows I have at  70 in the same period!! Trigger warning: Alongside swearing we discuss some heavy topics such as: bullying, ableism, trolling, sexism, internalised misogyny, addiction, accidental injury, premature death, suicidal ideation, suicide, self harm, divorce, family and relationship struggles, bereavement, abusive relationships, self loathing, depression and anxiety. If you are in need of support YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

In honor of ADHD Awareness Month, we're talking about how mindfulness can reduce symptoms of ADHD with Dr. Lidia Zylowska.   In this episode we explore:   - Does having ADHD make it harder to engage in mindfulness and meditation practices? (Spoiler: Yes, but there are things we can do about that!)   - What the research reveals about mindfulness in teens and adults with ADHD and the science of how a mindfulness practice strengthens neurological deficits in the brain.   - Parenthood requires so much executive functioning, sensory stimulation, and stress, so often this is when the strategies we've been using to manage symptoms of ADHD fall apart.   - Concrete strategies, like the best time of day, introducing aspects of physicality, and logistical considerations for how to incorporate mindfulness practice into your life when sitting still feels too difficult or daunting.   - Tips for identifying what helps you personally feel less flooded that can serve as your go-to's when things start to feel scattered, stuck, or overwhelming.   - The importance of self-compassion in mindfulness and how this is an often overlooked, yet key piece of mindfulness practices.   If you're curious about how mindfulness can make a real difference for those with ADHD, this episode is a must-listen!     LEARN MORE ABOUT DR.

Janine Allen Hertel talks with Four Ravens Occupational Therapist Maggie Hotch. October is Disability and ADHD Awareness Month.

It's ADHD Awareness Month, so Fearne's reflecting on some of the conversations she's had about neurodiversity on the show that'll hopefully help you understand either yourself, or someone you love, even better... First, what are the signs and symptoms of ADHD? Do you recognise more of the hyperactive & impulsive symptoms like rashly spending money and substance addiction, or the inattentive ones like problems with working memory and organisation? Then there's chat about how having undiagnosed ADHD can lead to mental health problems, why there's so much shame in the neurodivergent community, and how to advocate for your needs in the workplace. Can ADHD be managed with lifestyle factors like nutrition and movement, or might you or a loved one benefit from medication? Plus, why it's so important to differentiate between neurodivergence and the emotional dysregulation everyone can experience.

Hey, ADHD-ish fam!

It's not only ADHD Awareness Month, it is also Dyslexia Awareness Month! So today, let's revisit a conversation with Dr. Sally Shaywitz about overcoming dyslexia and addressing the reading crisis, which is still relevant and a huge concern. We are in the midst of a reading crisis in the United States. This problem has existed for a long time, but it was exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. It has been said that the pandemic has caused the loss of 2 decades worth of progress made in reading. We have the knowledge, research, and science to address this issue, but we are lacking action. Today's guest is Dr. Sally Shaywitz, one of the world's preeminent experts on reading and dyslexia and author of Overcoming Dyslexia. Dyslexia is the most common learning disorder on the planet, affecting about one in five individuals, regardless of age or gender. In today's episode, Dr. Shaywitz shares what is known about dyslexia, the 40 years of data to show what works in overcoming dyslexia, and the sad reality that there is little action being taken to improve screening students and providing the appropriate interventions. There is so much we can do and it all starts with understanding.  Show Notes: [3:31] - Regardless of decades of research, there are still a lot of misconceptions. [4:44] - Dyslexia is a very specific learning disability, but the term “learning disability” is very vague. [6:21] - Through brain imaging, Dr. Shaywitz was able to determine the neuro signature of dyslexia. [8:21] - Educators, parents, and the individual with dyslexia need to know that they are intelligent and have the intelligence to read, but dyslexia makes it a struggle. [9:58] - Dyslexia is common in all areas of the world. The consequences are similar in all cultures. [11:06] - Those with dyslexia can be good readers while still reading slowly. [12:02] - The most important step is for the student to be identified as dyslexic. [13:34] - Through her studies, Dr. Shaywitz has nearly 40 years worth of data for both typical readers and dyslexic readers from childhood to adulthood. [14:50] - Indicators of dyslexia can be seen as early as first grade. Identifying those at risk for developing dyslexia and intervening early can accelerate reading growth. [16:06] - Screening can take place later, but by then, the window of time for the most reading growth has passed. [18:03] - Currently, we are scoring worse in previous years in identifying dyslexia in young students. [19:09] - Dr. Shaywitz describes the screener used to determine the risk of dyslexia. [21:08] - A universal screener is a solution to this reading crisis. [22:13] - Given that we know a great deal about dyslexia, it is disgraceful that more isn't being done to support students. [23:14] - ADHD and anxiety often co-occur with dyslexia. [24:36] - We often hyperfocus on the struggles, but what are the common strengths for those with dyslexia? [25:42] - School policies and teacher training surrounding dyslexia need to be changed. [26:46] - There is also research on individuals incarcerated who are also dyslexic. [28:06] - Dr. Shaywitz offers a course on Coursera that can be found here. [30:36] - We need screening, intervention, and education for parents, teachers, and students. About Our Guest: Sally E. Shaywitz, M.D. is the Audrey G. Ratner Professor in Learning Development at Yale University and Co-Founder and Co-Director of the Yale Center for Dyslexia & Creativity. She is a world renowned scientist and dedicated, compassionate physician who is devoted to bringing ground-breaking scientific advances to benefit dyslexic children and adults.

It is ADHD Awareness Month, and we are revisiting an excellent conversation with Dr. Stephen Hinshaw about ADHD in girls. We've discussed ADHD on the podcast before and it continues to be an important topic. Dr. Stephen Hinshaw has conducted years of research including a longitudinal study on girls with ADHD and his findings are not only fascinating but important to consider especially if you are the parent of a daughter with ADHD. Dr. Hinshaw wrote a book called Straight Talk About ADHD in Girls: How to Help Your Daughter Thrive. Parenting a daughter with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder is no easy path, especially because of the myth that the disorder is rare or nonexistent in girls. In his book, Dr. Hinshaw provides vital information and advice to help you understand and meet your daughter's needs. And in this episode, he does the same. He delivers up-to-date facts on what ADHD is, why symptoms often appear differently in girls than in boys, why girls with ADHD behave the way they do, how to get an accurate diagnosis, and what treatments are most effective. There is so much pressure on girls to be perfect and for those with ADHD, it feels especially hard to measure up. The social stigmas and academic challenges ADHD presents to girls are often isolating and painful. So listen to Dr. Hinshaw explain the science behind it all and what we can do as parents and educators to help our girls with ADHD. Show Notes: [2:42] - ADHD is more prevalent in boys than girls, but why? [3:43] - Because of the difference in development, symptoms of ADHD in girls are often overlooked. [4:47] - Girls with ADHD tend to show their symptoms differently. Many don't get diagnosed until they are teenagers or even young adults. [5:48] - ADHD causes problems with the self-regulation of attention. [7:36] - Some girls may show their hyperactivity verbally instead of physically. [9:03] - Dr. Hinshaw conducted the largest longitudinal study on girls with ADHD. [9:57] - In childhood, girls with ADHD are just as impaired as boys. Socially, they tend to get rejected by their peers more so than boys. [11:46] - Dr. Hinshaw shares the differences in the larger consequences like delinquency, substance use, and mental health. [13:54] - ADHD increases the risk of self-harm and suicide. [15:28] - Low self-esteem, difficult peer relationships, and increasing academic struggles, make things challenging in young adulthood too. [17:21] - Across many studies and types of research, both males and females and the differences between them are not taken into consideration.

Imagine being told that what you thought were personal failings are actually symptoms of a misunderstood condition. Join me, Jeanette Graham, as I navigate the intricate world of ADHD and uncover the soaring diagnosis rates in the U.S., where adult diagnoses have skyrocketed to 15.5%. With expert insights from Dr. Patel, we probe into why these numbers are higher in the U.S., citing reduced stigma and advanced diagnostic tools as driving forces. We also discuss the hurdle many face—71% of Americans with prescriptions struggle to obtain their ADHD medication—and the pivotal role of cultural beliefs and historical stigma in the landscape of global diagnosis and treatment.Unmasking the hidden challenges of ADHD, this episode explores the nuanced experiences of those living with the condition, especially in environments where symptoms are often concealed. Using the metaphor of an iceberg, we unravel the layers of struggles such as sleep issues and emotional turbulence that go unnoticed. I share my personal reflections on the shame and comorbidities tied to late diagnoses, and how understanding the complex nature of executive functions can lead to a life filled with contradictions—an insight that's particularly inspired by popular TikTok trends. The conversation shifts to managing these challenges, and the emotional rollercoaster of coming to terms with an adult ADHD diagnosis, capturing the grief and relief it brings.The journey doesn't end at diagnosis—it's a continuous rollercoaster of emotion and adaptation. Life with ADHD requires finding the right balance amid societal misconceptions, and is particularly challenging for women who navigate additional hurdles like hormonal fluctuations. Words from Russell Barkley resonate as I talk about bridging the gap between knowledge and action, a common struggle for those with ADHD. By fostering self-compassion, I have found peace in accepting my diagnosis, and I encourage listeners to do the same. As part of ADHD Awareness Month, I invite you to embrace your unique journey and share your stories. Support the show
