Send us Fan MailEver stare at a three-minute email and feel your brain freeze while your hand reaches for the spice rack? We explore adult ADHD with a practical, humane lens—how a distracted “CEO of the brain” scrambles working memory, warps time into now and not now, and amplifies emotions so small hassles feel catastrophic. Instead of guilt or grit-as-a-solution, we map the real mechanics: dopamine dynamics, executive function breakdowns, and the anxiety loop that steals focus and breeds avoidance.From there, we get tactical. We talk about medication as a helpful wake-up for the brain's CEO—useful, but not a magic bullet. The real momentum comes from externalizing executive function with capture tools, whiteboards, visual timers, and written instructions, then breaking tasks into tiny, winnable steps that deliver quick dopamine hits. We show how mindfulness isn't about bliss but about reps—notice distraction, return on purpose—and how short movement breaks act like nature's Ritalin, resetting the nervous system so focus blocks actually stick.Food and environment become levers, not afterthoughts. We explain why sugar crashes mimic ADHD symptoms and why protein-first breakfasts, omega-3s, and steady hydration matter for mood and attention. We draw a bright line between therapy (the architect for belief and anxiety) and coaching (the contractor for routines and accountability), then outline workplace accommodations that reduce noise and protect deep work. We also flag common comorbidities like dyslexia and dyscalculia, and share simple, repeatable systems families can model together.The big shift: stop trying to be a different brain; build a different environment. When you design your inputs, meals, movement, and workflows to match how your mind actually operates, effort finally converts into results. If this resonated, follow the show, share it with someone who needs a kinder map for ADHD, and leave a review so more folks can find these tools. Which strategy will you try first?

Film Fest Tickets: https://buytickets.at/thedopeyfoundation/2216905 PATREON - www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast On this Thursday Greatest Hits episode, we replayed Ryan Leone's first appearance on Dopey — one of the wildest, most bombastic interviews we've ever done. Ryan was a ridiculously talented, handsome, funny writer who lived one of the most extreme addict lives imaginable: early Ritalin addiction, wilderness programs, stabbing a skinhead, running with cartels, moving kilos of Molly and heroin, multiple federal prisons, writing his cult-classic novel Wasting Talent while locked up, getting close with Johnny Depp, and battling brutal relapses after periods of success. We also had a wild voicemail from Dade about a naked, coke-fueled brawl that ended with her putting her feet through multiple walls, plus listener comments and updates. Ryan passed away in 2022 from fentanyl, which makes this replay especially heavy and important. His story is pure Dopey — chaotic, violent, hilarious, tragic, and full of hard-earned wisdom. Rest in Peace Ryan Leone! We Love You! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
Film Festival Tickets: https://buytickets.at/thedopeyfoundation/2216905 PATREONL www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast Zoom: dopeyzoom.com This Week on the Wednesday Dose! The episode opens with Dave feeling sick but super inspired by the Knicks, community in general, and the way Dopey Nation sticks together. He talks about Dopey Zoom, putting up Dopey stickers carefully, and the psychedelic idea that listeners are all connected through the show. Dave also pays tribute to Rob Base and Sonny Rollins, then reads a brutal listener email from Sarah about broken ankles, losing housing, 7OH/Kratom struggles, and leaning on Dopey Nation. He reads Patreon and Spotify comments, talks about Skinny Vinny, drug dreams, Canadian bacon, Patreon tiers, Tom Shoes backlash, and then promotes the Dopey Recovery Short Film Festival. The main conversation is with Handsome Evan, who is celebrating six years sober and just had his second son on his sobriety anniversary. Sitting in the car by the Great South Bay, Dave and Evan talk AA politics, Jewishness in meetings, Anthony Spaghetti, recovery community, and Evan's story. Evan tells stories about smoking crack, driving dealers around Gordon Heights, trading belongings for drugs, stealing from his family, and eventually becoming a drug and alcohol counselor while still smoking weed and later using coke, booze, Xanax, and Ritalin. He talks about the shame of claiming recovery while secretly using, finally going back to rehab after his wife caught him, and how AA, structure, OCD, and fatherhood helped him build a real life. The episode closes with Evan opening up about anxiety around parenting, obsessive fears about his kids, family resentments, and the strange normal problems of sober life. Anthony Spaghetti makes a guest appearance to explain Prince Spaghetti Day. All that and MORE! MORE! MORE! on a new wednesday dose of that good ol' dopey show.

Moeten artsen eigenlijk wel ADHD-pillen voorschrijven aan kinderen? Met die vraag blijf je achter als je het boek Speedpillen leest van schrijver Jeroen Pen. Hij kreeg op jonge leeftijd Ritalin voorgeschreven. Deze medicatie werkte in het begin fantastisch, totdat hij zwaar verslaafd raakte, en zijn leven meermaals ontspoorde. Esma Linnemann spreekt hem vandaag over zijn boek. Ook aangeschoven is techredacteur en ADHD'er Simoon Hermus.

In dieser Folge wird es kontrovers, unbequem und vielleicht auch erschreckend. Zu Gast sind gleich mehrere Experten aus den Bereichen Dopingforschung, Sportethik und Gesellschaftsanalyse – darunter Pharmakologe Fritz Sörgel, Sportrechtler Martin Schimke und Wissenschaftler Christoph Binkelmann. Gemeinsam werfen wir einen Blick auf ein Thema, das den Sport für immer verändern könnte: die Enhanced Games. Was passiert eigentlich im Körper bei Doping? Warum nehmen Athleten trotz massiver Risiken leistungssteigernde Mittel? Und warum sorgt eine neue Sportbewegung, die Doping nicht nur erlaubt, sondern feiert, weltweit für Diskussionen? Wir sprechen über EPO, Steroide, Wachstumshormone und die medizinischen Folgen von Leistungssteigerung. Aber auch über die gesellschaftliche Frage dahinter: Warum akzeptieren wir Hochrisikosportarten, verurteilen aber gedopte Athleten? Ist der moderne Leistungssport überhaupt noch fair – oder war er das nie? Außerdem geht es um Fairness, Selbstbestimmung, Leistungsdruck, KI, Ritalin, Freizeitdoping und die Frage, wie weit Menschen gehen werden, um besser zu werden. Diese Folge wird deine Sicht auf Leistung, Gesundheit und modernen Sport verändern. Jetzt reinhören und selbst entscheiden: Sind die Enhanced Games die Zukunft des Sports – oder der Anfang seines Untergangs?

This podcast episode of Next Level Healing features Dr. Tara Perry speaking with fitness industry expert Kevin Steel, PhD, about the transformative benefits of exercise for brain health, anti-aging, and overall well-being.Kevin Steel brings decades of experience in health and fitness, having completed multiple Ironman competitions and holding a PhD in exercise physiology with a subspecialty in nutrition. He spent his career working with everyone from corporate executives to athletes, eventually becoming director of education research and member services for the world's largest health club company. The conversation centers on Steel's assertion that exercise is like a miracle drug - "if science could put it inside a pill, people would be lined up around the block, willing to pay anything to get it". He emphasizes that only 7% of chronic diseases are genetic, meaning 93% are lifestyle-related and preventable. Key benefits of exercise discussed include:Brain Health: Regular exercise regenerates neurons and expands gray and white matter in the brain [13:52]. It stimulates brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which acts like "fertilizer for your brain" [15:32]. Exercise can reduce amyloid plaques associated with Alzheimer's and dementia [13:52].Mental Health: Steel references Dr. John Ratey's book "Spark," which demonstrated that exercise therapy can achieve the same or better results than pharmaceutical drugs for treating anxiety, depression, and stress [21:12] [21:38].Physical Health: Exercise improves cardiovascular function, blood pressure, insulin sensitivity, and can even reverse type 2 diabetes when combined with healthy eating [18:58] [16:32] [18:01].Children's Health: A study in Naperville, Illinois showed that structured exercise programs eliminated ADHD symptoms in children, allowed them to go off medications like Ritalin, and dramatically improved academic test scores [23:05] [23:34] [23:44].Steel advocates for a whole food, plant-based diet, noting concerns about hormones and antibiotics in mass-produced animal products [34:11]. He emphasizes that exercise doesn't require expensive equipment - simple activities like walking 30 minutes daily cost nothing but provide significant health benefits [29:33].Despite these proven benefits, only 26% of American adults exercise regularly, and only 18-20% belong to health clubs [28:34]. Steel attributes this partly to doctors receiving little education about exercise science in medical school, leaving patients without specific guidance when told to "eat better and exercise" [30:53] [31:41].The episode concludes with Steel's contact information for those seeking more guidance: LinkedIn at Kevin D Steel PhD: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevindsteelephd and email at KDsteelphd@yahoo.comWork with Dr. Tara PerryTune in every Wednesday for a new episode of Next Level Healing.

This week, we conclude our 4-part series on Strokes, the #4 cause of death in America. In this episode, you'll discover:—How the number one thing we can do to prevent Strokes is to not smoke cigarettes. And the dangers of Vaping which Dr. Prather says "can actually be worse" because of the Heavy Metals that are being inhaled. —Why Dr. Prather says it is "a testament against our government" that only 2% of a cigarette is required to be composed of tobacco, with the rest being cardboard soaked in addictive chemicals. —The Acupuncture, Auriculotherapy, and Homeopathy treatments offered at Holistic Integration that are incredibly effective in helping people to overcome cigarette and other addictions. —How birth control pills are the leading cause of younger women to have a Stroke because they reduce Copper levels in the body, which leads to a weakening of the arteries. Plus, the dangers of legal pharmaceutical amphetamines like Ritalin, which are "basically cocaine".—How the ECP (External CounterPulsation) Therapy at Holistic Integration prevents Cardiovascular Disease, will reverse Cardiovascular Disease, and even reverses Stroke effects by duplicating 5 years of marathon training for the heart in just 7 weeks. —The role obesity plays in increasing the risk of a Stroke. And the Body Composition Analysis at Holistic Integration that measures your Body Fat Percentage more accurate,y than the Body Mass Index measurement. —Why TIA events should be taken seriously because they will make you 10 times more likely to have a Stroke within the next year. And why Dr. Prather says you need to react to a TIA as if you have had a Stroke. —The amazing amount of information you get from the Autonomic Nervous System ANS Test that is given to every new patient at Holistic Integration and helps Dr. Prather really know if a patient is in trouble. —Why your Cholesterol ratio matters more than just your overall Total Cholesterol number. And how Cholesterol is actually an antioxidant there to protect you from Free Radical damage.—The importance of proper Chiropractic Care in Stroke Prevention, particularly the Atlas Orthogonal Adjustment. And why Dr. Prather says you are not going to correct Hypertension caused by a Vagal Nerve issue unless you correct the Atlas first. http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com*Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

You've probably heard that medications like Ritalin, Adderall, or Vyvanse simply "fix" your attention. But what if I told you that most of what you think you know about how these meds work is actually wrong—or at least seriously incomplete? Understanding why neurodiversity is good for business starts with accurate information about how our brains actually function—including the real science behind ADHD medication.In this episode, we'll unpack new, game-changing scientific research that reveals what stimulants are truly doing in your brain. Spoiler: they're not just fixing your attention networks.We'll explore how these meds boost arousal and make boring business tasks feel more worth doing, why sleep is a critical performance variable, and what all of this means for structuring your workflows and managing your expectations as a business owner with ADHD.Whether you're taking medication, considering it, or just plain curious, this episode will help you understand the real role of stimulants in your entrepreneurial journey—and give you practical strategies to work with your brain.For years, we've been told stimulants “fix” our faulty attention networks. But new research out of Washington University just flipped that script—and it has huge implications for how we work, rest, and structure our businesses. This research on the attention mechanism in neural networks reveals that ADHD medication works differently than we thought.3 Key Takeaways:Stimulants = Wakefulness + Salience boost: They don't “fix” your attention span—they make your brain more awake (like a great night's sleep) and make boring tasks feel more worth doing.Sleep is a performance variable, not optional: Meds can mask sleep deprivation, but can't fix it. If you're hitting a wall by afternoon, it's likely a sleep issue, not a “bad brain” or “bad med” issue.Build your business around your real needs: Use your medicated hours for tedious-but-critical tasks, create systems that connect daily actions to meaningful outcomes, and get super-specific in conversations about what “isn't working”—the answer isn't always a higher dose.Resources Mentioned in the Episode: Study in Cell MagazineAbout the Host, Diann Wingert:Diann Wingert is the creator and host of ADHDish, a podcast that explores the realities of living with ADHD, especially for entrepreneurs and business owners.

Matt Grace. The first half of Matt Grace's grippingly honest memoir, GOD DOESN'T RELAPSE (Lasega Books; August 11, 2026) reveals the story of a selfish, entitled, lying, cheating, manipulating, unfaithful, abusive, cruel, worst-case drug addict. From a young age, Grace was a self-indulgent, abrasive, disrespectful bully who manipulated his mother, playing on her guilt for cheating on his father and blaming her for the divorce and his enabling father, continually in denial about his son's drug addiction and never making him pay for his mistakes. If he destroyed a car inebriated, he got another one the next day. If he rang up the credit card to thousands, he was never made to pay it back. This tragic, but inspiring story takes Grace through a life getting high on various substances, from alcohol, to cocaine and crack, to Ritalin to oxy to meth and basically anything he could get his hands on. As with others like him coming from a world of wealth, he had an easy time getting money to pay for his habits, and found jobs through his enabling father who also had the connections to help him avoid the law. He ruined many lives on his chaotic, rudderless journey. But just when he seems the most horrible person imaginable, Grace experiences a coming-to-god moment, really sees the light in a room while he's on his knees, at his lowest ebb, praying. And because he was one of the lucky ones whose addictions didn't kill him, the direction of his life was able to change for the better and he is now on the road to redemption and helping to serve others. More than 48 million Americans are battling substance use disorder—and more than half of those who find their way to recovery will relapse. Grace's story is not just personal—it's urgently relevant. As prescription drug abuse surges, as fentanyl turns every relapse into a potential death sentence, and as families across the country grapple with loss, disappearance, and exploitation, this memoir exposes the deep fractures in the lives of addicts and the often-inadequate approaches within the addiction treatment industry. About the Author Matt Grace is an author, speaker, and transformational recovery expert who has devoted his life to helping people break free from addiction and reclaim their future. With more than twenty years of sobriety, a bachelor's degree in Addiction Studies with a focus on Integrative Healing, and over 10,000 hours mentoring individuals and families, he has become a trusted guide to both the highly privileged and the deeply overlooked. He is the founder of Saving Grace, a practice designed to help families navigate the painful intersection of generational wealth and generational wounds. His work has taken him from Manhattan boardrooms and Palm Beach estates to church basements, recovery homes, and state-funded programs in Michigan, reflecting his belief that addiction knows no boundaries—and neither should recovery. Today, Matt speaks nationally on addiction, recovery, and redemption, bringing raw honesty, practical structure, and hard-won wisdom to audiences across every walk of life. His mission is simple: to dismantle the lies of addiction, restore families, and prove that rock bottom is not the end—it's the beginning. Matt Grace stands as proof that when service becomes your higher power, transformation becomes possible.

Melissa sits down with renowned psychiatrist and brain health expert Daniel Amen for the third time to explore the connection between brain health and overall wellbeing. Following her recent ADHD diagnosis, Melissa shares the changes she's been making and why understanding the brain itself can transform the way we approach mental health. They discuss the stigma surrounding stimulant medications and the differences between Adderall and Ritalin. Dr. Amen explains how brain scans can reveal the effects of past trauma and why the brain has a remarkable ability to heal. Melissa also shares the tools she's exploring to support her brain health including hormone balancing, saffron for PMS relief, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy and how these insights have shaped a more mindful, intentional approach to her life and wellness.You can get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/MWH15 and using code MWH15 at checkout.Visit dreamrecovery.io and use the code MWH15 for 15% off.

Dr. Adam Dorsay introduces his podcast episode featuring Melissa Orlov, a Harvard-educated expert on ADHD and marriage and author of “The ADHD Effect on Marriage” and “The Couple's Guide to Thriving with ADHD.” They discuss what adult ADHD is and is not, emphasizing attention dysregulation, distractibility, impulsivity, planning and working-memory difficulties, and emotional dysregulation, along with the hereditary and neurochemical basis (notably low dopamine) and why stimulants can be calming by increasing dopamine availability. Dorsay shares his own late ADHD diagnosis, his first experience taking Ritalin, and how medication helped him build habits and identity-based changes he later maintained without medication.Orlov describes common, predictable relationship patterns in ADHD-impacted couples, including the “hyperfocus courtship” phase driven by elevated dopamine and the shift after 24–28 months when symptoms become more visible. She outlines the experiences of both partners: the ADHD partner often carries lifelong shame and sensitivity to criticism, while the non-ADHD partner can feel lonely, resentful, and overwhelmed by chaos and perceived lack of follow-through. They explore distractibility and how “new or shiny” can override what is important, and they highlight strengths often associated with ADHD such as creativity, energy, passion, and effective performance in high-stimulation contexts.Orlov presents a three-stage framework for healing: moving out of denial and learning how ADHD impacts relationships, both partners taking responsibility for their own work, and breaking entrenched patterns such as parent-child dynamics and “symptom-response-response” cycles by reframing symptoms and changing reactions. They address sleep hygiene as foundational, noting sleep deprivation can worsen or mimic ADHD symptoms, and discuss strategies like consistent bedtime routines, “sacred bedtime,” and limiting electronics and blue-light exposure. They also discuss how parent-child dynamics harm sexual connection, the importance of lowering pressure when restarting sex, and improving communication about sex. Orlov closes with the importance of rebuilding trust through transparency and ownership rather than equating trust solely with perfect follow-through, and she names self-compassion and compassion for others as the key skill she would give to everyone.00:00 Welcome to Dorsay00:28 ADHD and Marriage Stakes01:00 Meet Melissa Orlov03:00 Why ADHD Feels Familiar04:17 What ADHD Is and Isnt06:23 Why Stimulants Help07:38 Adams Diagnosis Story09:36 Medication Targets and Hope12:14 Habits and Identity Shifts13:15 Empathy for Both Partners14:50 ADHD Partner Childhood Shame20:13 Non ADHD Partner Experience22:19 Hyperfocus Courtship Chemistry24:46 Distractibility in Relationships26:49 Main Thing Mantra27:24 Medication to Structure28:39 ADHD Strengths Kept30:17 Three Stages Healing31:29 Breaking Bad Patterns34:57 Sleep Hygiene Fixes40:36 Electronics at Bedtime42:14 Sex and Reconnection49:06 Rebuilding Trust54:21 Compassion Magic Skill55:22 Closing ThanksHelpful Links:Melissa OrlovMelissa Orlov The Couple's Guide to Thriving with ADHD Book

Following a CPS investigation initiated by a mandatory school reporter and a previous restraining order involving Jim's current wife, Courtney, a December 2025 settlement resulted in the children moving to Tennessee to live with Jim full-time. This case mirrors California legal procedures, where the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) investigates similar reports via a Section 3027 report to determine if allegations are founded, which can lead to emergency custody shifts and restricted visitation.
Does brain science need a new grand plan? Is the brain less like an assembly line and more like a weather system? What does this mean for what counts as explanatory, and how might AI help us in the near future? What does any of this have to do with how the drug Ritalin got its name? Today we’ll speak with neuroscientist Nicole Rust, author of Elusive Cures.
On our latest podcast, we discuss the episodes of Coronation Street shown between the 9th and the 13th February (Episodes #11,790 - 11,794) This week, we meet Jodie and Shona's dad, Doug, though he's confined to his bed and certainly not in a good state of mind - though he's still lucid enough to know his youngest daughter's a wrong 'un. We're loving the mystery around this family, and Jodie's curious box of knickknacks has us wondering all sorts about what she's been up to! Also this week, Sam gets in touch with the Weatherfield drugs wizard when he hears that Ritalin can be used as a study aid - but is this a little too out of character for him? Also this week, Theo returns from his mum's, Mal proves himself to a a definite stalkery weirdo, and Debbie is assigned a prison buddy - and it's someone we were very happy to see again! As much as we wanted to carry on with the podcast after this and discuss the cancellation of the BSAs, unfortunately Michael wasn't feeling too well at all, so we called it a day after Street Talk - so you'll just have to wait a little longer to hear our thoughts on the British Soap Awards' cancellation!
Big Dipper and Meatball welcome the one and only Monét X Change to the studio, where she immediately confesses to popping a Ritalin and dives headfirst into the chaos. They get into everything from her enjoyment of fellating men for hours to walking cats on leashes and whether or not she quietly snuck off for a BBL. Monét spills about doing stand-up, surviving 36 unforgettable hours on Survivor, her time on The Traitors Season 4 and why rotted wigs, DL hookups, and “dick decks” on gay cruises are simply part of the gig. Plus, Monét explains the athletic art of tucking at the gym while Dipper educates her on the proper terminology for hooking up with chubby men, and Meatball accuses her of tattooing on her freckles.Listen to Sloppy Seconds Ad-Free AND One Day Early on MOM PlusCall us with your sex stories at 213-536-9180!Or e-mail us at sloppysecondspod@gmail.comFOLLOW SLOPPY SECONDSFOLLOW BIG DIPPERFOLLOW MEATBALLSLOPPY SECONDS IS A FOREVER DOG AND MOGULS OF MEDIA (M.O.M.)

When we think of potentially dangerous and addictive drugs, most of us think about illegal substances like heroine or cocaine. And yet widely-prescribed drugs like Xanax, Ritalin, Adderall, and Vicodin are also addictive, but legal in the United States. Historian David Herzberg discusses the artificial distinction that has been created between addictive drugs and medicines — with the key difference being the class and race of the consumers who use them and the partial protections that one group receives and the other does not. (Encore presentation.)

In this Thanksgiving conversation, The Talk My Credo team discards their entire topic outline to have an in-depth discussion community, faith, & the trending wave of "deconstruction" in responding to a recent online quarrel. Donte discusses the concept of deconstruction in relation to faith and belief systems, emphasizing that many individuals who claim to be deconstructing their beliefs are often not engaging in a genuine exploration of their faith, but rather are motivated by a disdain for God. He contrasts the idea of genuinely understanding one's beliefs with the act of simply tearing down established faith without a constructive purpose.

Edward English grew up between Houston and Ohio in a turbulent home marked by an absent father and an abusive stepfather. Put on Ritalin from ages 7 to 17, he struggled with confidence and identity — eventually turning to drugs as a way to escape. What started as experimentation spiraled into an eight-year heroin addiction that led to his arrest in 2011 for possession, distribution, and trafficking. Sentenced to nearly eight years in prison, Edward served 4.5 before being released in 2016. Behind bars, everything changed. Through faith, mentorship, and personal growth programs, he transformed his mindset and rebuilt his life from the inside out — a journey he documents in his memoir Emersion. Today, Edward is 14 years clean, a husband, father, and commercial plumber in Columbus, Ohio, dedicated to helping others overcome addiction and find purpose after prison. His story is one of pain, perseverance, and the power of true transformation. #LockedInWithIanBick #PrisonStories #TrueCrime #AddictionRecovery #HeroinAddiction #OhioPrison #RedemptionStory #realstories Thank you to DAWS for sponsoring this episode: Go to http://www.daws.org/ to donate, adopt or send items from their wishlist.

Lots of work to do—let's get to it—Here are 3 big things for this hour— Number One— A scathing report is calling on the United States to label the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization—and says anything less puts American lives in jeopardy from radical terrorists that are already living here— Number Two— There is word coming out that President Trump is crafting a 28 point plan—similar to what he created for Gaza—in an effort to bring peace to Ukraine and end the war with Russia— Number Three— We are watching an entire generation of young men drift—angry, aimless, medicated – there are more men on Ritalin in the U.S. than in any other country – they're addicted to screens, and told from every corner that the very thing that could save them, their God-given masculinity, is the problem. And I'm here to tell you that's a lie straight from the pit.

An estimated 7 million (11.4%) U.S. children aged 3–17 years have been diagnosed with ADHD, according to a national survey of parents using data from 2022. This represents an increase of 1 million compared to 2016. Ritalin is a brand name for the prescription medication methylphenidate, a central nervous system stimulant used primarily to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy. It works by affecting chemicals in the brain and nerves that contribute to hyperactivity and impulse control, helping to improve focus, attention, and reduce impulsive behaviors and hyperactivity. There are natural ways of accomplishing the same thing, allowing the body to function as it is designed to do, treating the whole body not the symptom. Dr Wallach explores these solutions in tonight's show. #BardsFM_HealthAndWellness #TreatingADHD #BodyTemple Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com EnviroKlenz Air Purification, promo code BARDS to save 10%:www.enviroklenz.com EMPShield protect your vehicles and home.

Here's a puzzle that will stop you cold: ADHD has exploded into public consciousness. More diagnoses than ever. More research. More conversations. And yet? Turn on your television. What stares back at you?The class clown. The scatterbrained sidekick. The walking punchline.Something doesn't add up.This disconnect—between lived reality and screen reality—forms the heart of this week's conversation with Matthew Fox, whose passion for dissecting genre media runs as deep as his own neurodivergent experience. Fox hosts Superhero Ethics and other podcasts that examine the ethics woven through our most beloved stories. But today, they're hunting bigger game.Consider this: Maria von Trapp. "How do you solve a problem like Maria?" Sound familiar? Fox argues she's ADHD incarnate. Flighty. Unpredictable. Out of focus. The nuns can't pin her down. Neither can we, apparently. Because nobody—not once—uses the words.That's the pattern. Characters burst with hyperactivity, impulsivity, attention challenges. Dennis the Menace in the '50s. Tigger bouncing through the Hundred Acre Wood. Calvin racing after imaginary adventures. All ADHD-coded. None explicitly labeled.Why does this matter? Because children search desperately for themselves in stories. Adults do too, though less consciously. When representation gets frozen in stereotype—or worse, buried in subtext—it shapes how teachers see students, how employers evaluate talent, how we see ourselves.The conversation zigzags through terrain both familiar and startling. Percy Jackson, where ADHD becomes a god-given power. Phil Dunphy, the endearing but scattered dad. Jake Peralta solving crimes through controlled chaos. Then the darker territory: Barney Stinson using ADHD as an excuse for predatory behavior.But here's where it gets interesting. Fox notices something that escaped everyone else: the gender patterns. Hyperactive male character? Meet his organized, grounding female partner. It's everywhere once you see it. Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Modern Family. New Girl. The narrative is always the same—love of a steady woman tames the chaotic man.And buried within all of this lies a more uncomfortable truth. In our hunger to see ourselves on screen, we claim characters who were never intended as representation. We read ADHD into Kirk and Spock, into Hiccup and his dragon, into anyone who shows even a glimmer of recognition.Is that enough? Should it be?Whether you're searching for positive examples for your children or trying to untangle how decades of media have shaped your own relationship with neurodivergence, this conversation might just shift how you watch ... everything.Links & NotesShows and MoviesModern Family - Phil Dunphy as ADHD-coded characterBrooklyn Nine-Nine - Jake Peralta as positive ADHD representationHow I Met Your Mother - Barney Stinson as problematic ADHD portrayalNew Girl - Nick and Jess relationship dynamicThe Simpsons - Bart Simpson and Ritalin episode (2000)Community - Abed Nadir as autism-coded characterParenthood (TV series) - Autism representationArrow - Felicity Smoak as ADHD-coded characterK-pop Demon Hunter - Zoe as positive ADHD representationThe Sound of Music - Maria von Trapp as ADHD-codedFinding Nemo/Finding Dory - Dory as ADHD representationHow to Train Your Dragon - Hiccup as ADHD-codedBooks and CharactersPercy Jackson series by Rick Riordan - ADHD as demigod traitCalvin and Hobbes - Calvin as ADHD-codedDennis the Menace - Classic hyperactive representationWinnie the Pooh characters as neurodivergent representationPodcasts by Matthew FoxThe Ethical PandaSuperhero EthicsStar Wars GenerationsMarvel Movie Minute (co-hosted with Pete Wright)The Once and Future Parent(Coming soon!)Links & NotesSupport the Show on PatreonDig into the podcast Shownotes Database (00:00) - Welcome to Taking Control: The ADHD Podcast (01:22) - Support the Show and Become a Patron!

Is ADHD really a brain disorder or a label created to sell drugs? Dr. Roger McFillin speaks with filmmaker Roman Wyden, founder of the ADHD Is Over movement- that includes a book, podcast and upcoming documentary. Roman shares why he rejected the ADHD label for his son and what he uncovered about the system behind it: schools, pharma, and psychiatry pushing parents toward pills. Together they expose how 6 million children in America are prescribed stimulants like Adderall and Ritalin, the billion-dollar ADHD industry that profits from it, and why more parents are waking up and saying: ADHD is over.ADHD is OVER Website Visit Center for Integrated Behavioral HealthDr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here

On todays Show Mark, James and Dwayne, covered various topics, including the 24th anniversary of 9/11, the weather in Dubai, and the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a controversial figure known for his conservative views. The conversation also delved into the economic implications of a summit involving 10 nations, representing 23% of the global GDP and 43% of the global population. Additionally, they discussed the potential impact of AI on the internet, the concept of the "dead internet," and the advancements in brain research related to ADD. The group also touched on the ethical considerations of curing ADD and the need for better data collection on the effectiveness of medication. The discussion centered on the effectiveness of ADHD medications, noting that Adderall, Ritalin, and Fivants can vary in efficacy and have different effects at different life stages. Personal anecdotes highlighted that only some family members benefited, while others did not. The conversation shifted to the "dead internet theory," explaining how AI and automation generate significant internet traffic without direct human interaction. This includes AI-driven tasks like job searches and data scraping, which could lead to legal issues. The segment concluded with a humorous plug for PJ's Coffee in Louisiana, emphasizing its diverse offerings and free internet. Don't miss it!

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared addresses Illinois' new mandate requiring annual mental health screenings for students in grades 3–12. While it's being framed as a step forward for children's well-being, Jared unpacks the hidden ties to pharmaceutical interests, the flawed screening tools linked to Pfizer, and the real risk of funneling kids toward lifelong prescriptions of SSRIs and other psychotropic drugs. You'll learn why the “chemical imbalance” theory of depression has been debunked, how placebo often performs as well as antidepressants in studies, and the dangers of medicating developing brains. Jared also shares his wife Jen's powerful journey of breaking free from decades on antidepressants through nutrition, gut healing, and root-cause support. This episode challenges the narrative that more medication equals better care, highlighting safer, natural paths to emotional vitality. If you're a parent, grandparent, or simply concerned about the future of mental health in our schools, this conversation is a must-listen.Products:LifeSeasons Lion's Mane Mushroom (Vitality Radio POW!

Rarely is one of our shows as intricately fascinating and self-disclosing to our guest and ourselves that we cannot adequately describe all that we covered, all that we learned, and all that we began integrating anew into our knowledge as the interview evolved. Our guest, physician Juliette Engel, was a captive, slave, and experimental subject controlled by the CIA from early childhood until age sixteen. Acting on her own, she then escaped the CIA/MKUltra house of devil worship — a subject we will let her tell you about in the interview. She began her new life as a college student, and to manage her severe post-traumatic stress, she developed amnesia for her horrendous past. As a therapist and researcher, I know this happens, but it requires a powerful mind like Dr. Engel to accomplish it and ultimately to flourish. Dr. Engel is part of a growing number of people coming forth about their experiences as victims of CIA experiments, which in part were training her to become a part of what I have decided to call, “the global community of abusers without conscience,” a powerful aspect of the global predators and their unholy empires. Adding incredible background to her personal testimony, she sent us in advance a document released from the National Security Archive on December 23, 2024. The ominous title is “CIA Behavioral Control Experiments Focus of New Scholarly Collection.” The CIA documents confirm many of Dr. Engel's memories, which only began to unfold much later, after a life of medical reform work in Russia. Confirming Our Own Experiences with the Deep State and CIA One huge confirmation for me and Ginger is how much the CIA was indeed focused on defending and supporting the very kind or torturous and inhuman psychiatric treatments that I began openly opposing in the early 1970s, including lobotomy and other forms of psychosurgery and electroshock (ECT) which I have described as an electrical closed-head lobotomy. Another insight for me was the similarity between the CIA agents and collaborators, as described in the CIA documents, and the global predators we have described in our book, COVID-19 and the Global Predators: We Are the Prey. This is the same profile we continue to explore in our recent columns about America's four current empires: the Western Global Empire, the Eastern Global Chinese Communist Empire, the Russian Empire, and the Caliphate Muslim Empire. These predators, across a broad spectrum of activities, are primarily motivated by a lust for power over other human beings. They also desire wealth, but mostly as a tool for gaining power. What drives them is the desire to exert power over as many people as possible within their sphere, whether it is a political party, a criminal cabal or conspiracy, a government agency, a nation, an empire, or a global governance. If they did not lust for power, they would not succeed in their goal of dominating, controlling, exploiting, enslaving, or killing as many people as possible. They must also possess extreme cunning and shrewdness to be able to manipulate and exploit so many people and to compete for power among so many other violent, cunning people. Probably above all else, they must be masters of conspiracy, able to seduce or intimidate others into helping them pursue their evil aims. These predators must lack identification with the people within their own family, group, nation, or empire, because seizing and growing enormous power usually requires, as history demonstrates, killing competitors in their own families and their own inner circles of co-conspirators, as well as millions of their own people, as demonstrated by apex global predators from Alexander “the Great” to Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and the current leaders of Communist China. These predators must not allow themselves to genuinely love anyone, because such entanglements and feelings would check or inhibit the kind of evil conduct required for fulfilling their primary lust for power. Ultimately, they must not identify with anyone but themselves. The following excerpts are taken from the vastly important document that our guest, Juliette Engel, MD, first drew to our attention, “CIA Behavior Control Experiments Focus of New Scholarly Collection.” [The document lacks page numbers, but the excerpts can be located by means of searching the document:] Excerpt 1 from the CIA Documents Asked whether the CIA had tried to identify “techniques of producing retrograde amnesia,” Gottlieb said it was something that they “talked about,” but that he could not “remember any specific projects or specific research mounted in response to that question.” Asked if the CIA ever used “psychosurgery research projects,” Gottlieb said his “remembrance is that they did.” Excerpt 2 The elevation of Allen Dulles to deputy director of central intelligence in 1951 led to an expansion of BLUEBIRD programs under a new name, ARTICHOKE, and under the direction of Gottlieb at TSS. The new program was to include, among other projects, the development of “gas guns” and “poisons,” and experiments to test whether “monotonous sounds,” “concussion,” “electroshock,” and “induced sleep” could be used as a means to gain “hypnotic control of an individual.”[5] Excerpt 3 Another prominent MKULTRA “cutout” foundation, the Human Ecology Society, was run by Cornell Medical Center neurologist Dr. Harold Wolff, who wrote an early study of communist brainwashing techniques for Allen Dulles and later partnered with the CIA to develop a combination of drugs and sensory deprivation that could be used to erase the human mind. Among the most extreme MKULTRA projects funded through Wolff's group were the infamous “depatterning” experiments conducted by Dr. D. Ewen Cameron at the Allan Memorial Institute, a psychiatric hospital at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. Cameron's methods combined induced sleep, electroshocks, and “psychic driving,” under which drugged subjects were psychologically tortured for weeks or months in an effort to reprogram their minds. Except 4 While no new techniques had been discovered, presently known mind control techniques described in the attachment include the use of LSD and other drugs, hypnosis, the use of the polygraph, neurosurgery, and electric shock treatments. However, field testing of these techniques has been handicapped by the “inability to provide the medical competence for a final evaluation and for such field testing as the evaluation indicates. Repeated efforts to recruit medical personnel have failed and until recently the CIA Medical Staff has not been in a position to assist.” Excerpt 5 The response from TSS lists 17 “materials and methods” that the Chemical Division was working to develop, including: *substances that “promote illogical thinking,” materials that would “render the induction of hypnosis easier” or “enhance its usefulness,” substances that would help individuals to endure “privation, torture and coercion during interrogation” and attempts at ‘brainwashing,'” *“materials and physical methods” to “produce amnesia” and “shock and confusion over extended periods of time,” substances that would “produce physical disablement, including paralysis, *substances that “alter personality structure” or that “produce ‘pure' euphoria with no subsequent let-down,” and a “knockout pill” for use in surreptitious druggings and to produce amnesia, among other things. [Asterisks and bold added] Excerpt 6 Gibbons was not fully clear on how the CIA obtained LSD, but most of it came from the Eli Lilly & Company, according to this memo, which “apparently makes a gift of it to CIA.” [bold added. There are many mentions in the report citing Eli Lilly as the source of massive of amounts of LSD which the CIA then inflicted upon Americans, sometimes as experiments and sometimes for financial gain.] End of Excerpts In the current release of CIA documents, many well-known government officials and universities are named as supporting and collaborating with MKUltra and other ghastly CIA experiments. Particularly stunning to me, the CIA bought a new wing for the Georgetown University Hospital, in return for which the CIA was given a special “safe house” inside the medical wing where they were free to inflict their wanton will on involuntary experimental subjects with supportive help from the hospital. One More Step in Facing the Evil Within These quotes confirm what I had long suspected and had only limited data to confirm — that the CIA and other government agencies are very protective and supportive of psychosurgery (lobotomy) and electroshock treatment (ECT). They want to research and apply these gross methods of damaging the human brain and mind to facilitate interrogation, to erase memories, to change personalities, and to make people more obedient and robotic. They also want them widely used in society to dumb down and render passive as many people as possible on the way to building the global slave state. During this interview, we began to more deeply appreciate the involvement of the Deep State in psychiatry and psychology and the strength of their opposition to my reform work going back to the early 1970s. My earliest reform efforts focused on these two treatments, psychosurgery and then electroshock, and finally matured into seeing all psychiatric treatment as an assault on the brain and mind. In various books and scientific articles, Ginger and I have been pointing to federal agencies pushing lobotomy (DOJ, NIMH), pushing electroshock (CIA, FDA), and pushing psychoactive drugs (FDA, CIA, NIMH, NIH, Department of Education, and others. Our greatest confrontation with federal agencies came during an intense few years when we educated and organized people to shut down a massive U.S. interagency eugenical program to go into the inner cities to identify supposed biological and genetic causes of violence in black children and youth. The goal was ultimately to justify the widespread diagnosing and drugging of these children, including highly remunerative drugs like antidepressants and stimulants. I had already encountered outright racism, with neurosurgeons and psychiatrists advocating in print for the use of psychosurgery to control the leaders of black uprisings in the 1960s and early 1970s. We completely defeated the massive eugenics project, causing the cancellation of a major conference and many research projects. We authored a book about it, The War Against Children of Color (1994), which addresses numerous Deep State actors such as the CDC, Department of Justice, FBI, NIMH, NIH, DHHS, and PHS, and names many perpetrators. But we had not yet seen the globalist scope of these activities. Here are links to a few articles about our successful efforts to stop the federal eugenics program. The Role of Psychiatry in Nazi Germany and the U.S. Violence Initiative. This link contains the written introduction and historical video of Dr. Peter Breggin's presentation to Black leaders and community members in Harlem in the early 1990s about the federal government's plans to biologically “prevent violence” by identifying and drugging Black toddlers and children—a plan ultimately stopped due to the Breggins' exposure of the eugenics program. A biomedical programme for urban violence control in the US: the dangers of psychiatric social control; by Peter R Breggin and Ginger Ross Breggin Letter to the Editor, The New York Times by Peter R. Breggin, M.D.: U.S. Hasn't Given Up Linking Genes to Crime. Excerpt: “Dr. Goodwin estimates that 100,000 children, as young as 5, will be identified for psychiatric interventions. He called the violence initiative the No. 1 funding priority for the Federal mental health establishment in 1994. My organization has since obtained documentation that millions of dollars of Federal funds are being spent on violence initiative research and planning, including studies of both rhesus monkeys and inner-city children. Newly developed psychiatric drugs are being tested for violence prevention in monkey studies, and some psychiatrists are claiming they can be used in humans for the same purpose. It seems inevitable that the violence initiative will involve administering the same drugs to inner-city children. The widespread use of Ritalin to control aggressive children, frequently supported or initiated by public schools, has set a precedent for pharmacological intervention.” Disposable Children in Black Faces: The Violence Initiative as Inner-City Containment Policy; Alfreda A. Sellers-Diamond, UMKC Law Review, 1994. Campaigns Against Racist Federal Programs by the Center for the Study of Psychiatry and Psychology; Peter R. Breggin, Journal of African American Men, 1995. NIH, under fire, freezes grant for conference on genetics and crime; Nature, Vol. 358, 30 July 1992, p357. It was further hammered home to me in the interview with Dr. Engel that the kinds of individuals who are cunning enough and violent enough to run totalitarian nations and empires have their counterparts running amok within many federal agencies and many other American institutions. And that is the force from within that we are fighting today as we stand up for freedom in America. We must face a former national leadership, and a current Deep State and other institutions riddled with the worst human beings we can imagine and understand — or we will remain vastly hampered in fighting them. ______ Learn more about Dr. Peter Breggin's work: https://breggin.com/ See more from Dr. Breggin's long history of being a reformer in psychiatry: https://breggin.com/Psychiatry-as-an-Instrument-of-Social-and-Political-Control Psychiatric Drug Withdrawal, the how-to manual @ https://breggin.com/a-guide-for-prescribers-therapists-patients-and-their-families/ Get a copy of Dr. Breggin's latest book: WHO ARE THE “THEY” - THESE GLOBAL PREDATORS?

A record high 7 million U.S. children have received an ADHD diagnosis, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. But journalist Paul Tough wonders if we're thinking about pediatric ADHD all wrong. For a recent New York Times Magazine feature, Tough spent a year talking to leading researchers who now say that standard treatments like Ritalin only help children behave better, not learn better – and even that effect wears off completely over time. We talk to Tough about why he says we need to reconceptualize diagnosis and treatment of ADHD. Guests: Paul Tough, contributing writer, New York Times Magazine Learn more about your ad choices.

Learn more about my patented program, Your ADHD Brain is A-OK Academy here: programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup___What if your doctor could prescribe a fishing group instead of another medication? A birdwatching club for your anxiety. An art class for your depression. Welcome to social prescribing—a healthcare movement that's changing how we think about healing by focusing on connection, not just pills.Julia Hotz is a journalist and author of The Connection Cure, the first book to explore the science behind social prescribing. As someone who recognizes herself in ADHD symptoms—the scattered attention, the 10,000 browser tabs, the plates left out for days—she's discovered something fascinating: when do we feel our symptoms the least?In this conversation, Julia and Tracy dive into why ADHD brains are particularly sensitive to loneliness and disconnection, and how social prescriptions can be game-changing. From Dave's fishing group that helped him overcome addiction and ADHD symptoms, to forest bathing backed by Japanese research, to bibliotherapy that eases anxiety, Julia shares real examples of how connection-based healing works.They explore attention restoration theory, why 20 minutes in nature can work as well as Ritalin, and how moving from "what's wrong with you" to "what matters to you" can transform everything. Julia shows us how giving our brains what they actually need—connection, nature, purpose—can help us thrive alongside traditional treatments.Resources: Website: https://www.hotzthoughts.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hotzthoughtsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/julia-hotz-06510161 Send a Message: Your Name | Email | Message Learn more by connecting with Tracy through Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, or visit adhdforsmartwomen.com.Are You Ready to Discover Your Brilliance?

ADHD is not genetic! In this video, we'll examine the profound connection between ADHD and diet. Discover the foods that worsen ADHD symptoms, the relationship between ADHD and sugar intake, and the best ADHD diet to address the nutritional deficiencies that may be causing some of the symptoms in the first place. 0:00 Introduction: ADHD and poor nutrition0:13 ADHD diagnosis and ADHD symptoms 1:54 Side effects of ADHD medications 2:04 ADHD causes 3:32 ADHD and food4:24 ADHD and nutritional deficiencies 6:20 The best ADHD dietAttention deficit hyperactivity disorder is typically diagnosed by identifying the following ADHD symptoms:•Makes mistakes easily•Lack of attention to detail•Does not listen when spoken to directly •Doesn't complete tasks •Cannot play quietly•Problems organizing •Loses things•Frequent fidgeting •Too much energy•Talks too much Many ADHD symptoms are normal childhood behaviors, and a poor diet can exaggerate all of them. ADHD is often treated with Adderall and Ritalin, which make lots of money for Big Pharma. The definition of ADHD has been dramatically expanded to make it more diagnosable, putting more people on medication.A double-blinded study showed that after 36 months, any benefits from Adderall faded to zero. It also has side effects such as aggressive behavior or a dulled mood. ADHD involves a metabolic problem with the prefrontal cortex of the brain. These metabolic changes affect the way the brain metabolizes fuel. If the brain is starved of fuel, you may exhibit symptoms like a lack of attention and hyperactivity. Chemicals like food dyes, artificial sweeteners, sugar, starch, and MSG tremendously impact behavior. Increasing dopamine can improve focus and feelings of calmness. Foods such as meat, fish, eggs, and cheese are high in the amino acid L-tyrosine, the precursor to dopamine.Research has shown that micronutrients, especially B6, magnesium, and zinc, can significantly decrease ADHD symptoms. Omega-3 fatty acids and fish oils can also improve symptoms without side effects. Vitamin B1 is one of the most overlooked nutrients, especially in psychiatric conditions. When a child consumes a lot of glucose, vitamin B1 is depleted, inhibiting the brain's ability to utilize fuel. If an adult or child is experiencing ADHD symptoms, they should switch to a low-carb diet so their body can run on ketones. Ketones will fuel the neurons and restore a sense of calmness and increased attention span.
