The ADHD Girl Guide to: Getting a Diagnosis

Welcome back to another ADHD Girl Guide! This time we're talking diagnosis, one of the biggest and most misunderstood parts of the ADHD conversation.We went through two completely different routes to get here: NHS Right to Choose and a private assessment, and we're breaking down what each one actually looks like, the waitlists, the costs, and the workarounds nobody tells you about.We dig into the self-diagnosis debate (spoiler: it's valid, but it's a first step, not a final answer), why "over-diagnosis" isn't the problem people think it is, and how other conditions can overlap with and mask ADHD symptoms.Plus, our top 10 tips for anyone starting the process - from picking the right assessor to what we wish we'd known before walking in — and the advice we'd give our younger selves if we'd been diagnosed sooner.If you've ever sat there thinking "maybe I have ADHD, but what if I'm not X enough for it to count" — this one's for you. You deserve the answers.Disclaimer: we are not medical professionals. This episode is based on personal experience, not clinical advice.

Attachment Styles, ADHD, and Why We Love Too Much (Then Run)

This week we're diving deep into attachment theory — anxious, avoidant, disorganised, and everything in between — and how ADHD makes it all so much more intense. We get brutally honest about our own most "unhinged" moments in relationships (hello, retroactive jealousy 👀), the fear of rejection that shapes how we love, and why chasing "secure" love can feel scarier than the chaos we're used to.We talk childhood roots, why your attachment style isn't a life sentence, and the one relationship that matters more than any romantic one: the one with yourself.If you've ever wondered "why do I do this in relationships?" — this episode is for you.In this episode:<ul><li>Anxious vs. avoidant vs. disorganised attachment</li><li>Our most unhinged relationship moments (we're not proud, but we're honest)</li><li>How ADHD intensifies attachment wounds</li><li>Retroactive jealousy and where it comes from</li><li>Learning to accept secure love when you're not used to it</li><li>Why healing starts with your relationship with yourself</li></ul> Grab a glass of wine and settle in — this one's a vulnerable one.

Eating Disorders, Body Image & ADHD: The Link Nobody Talks About

trigger warning: this one's a bit heavier than usual. We're talking eating disorders, body image and how they show up differently when you've got ADHD.we get into binge eating (and why it's so under-diagnosed, especially in women), the shame spiral that follows it, growing up in the Tumblr pro-ana era, and why rejection sensitive dysphoria makes body comments stick for life. we also go there on the Ozempic conversation; the accessibility of it, the trend of it, and why beauty standards always seem to circle back to whatever's hardest for "normal" people to get.plus: masking as a hidden driver of disordered eating, ARFID and sensory sensitivity in neurodivergent people, why scales are lying to you, and the stories behind our own body image baggage (boat parties, boob jobs, and the bikini we avoided for years).we're not experts, just two adhd women talking honestly about something that doesn't get talked about enough. if you're struggling, please reach out to BEAT or your GP.follow for new episodes every week 🧠
