ADHD Myths and (we're) Legends: ADHD Awareness Month (aka every month for me!)
Happy ADHD Awareness Month! Although here at Neurothrivergent, I like to think of every month as ADHD Awareness Month. In the spirit of raising awareness about the reality of living with ADHD as a late-diagnosed woman, in this episode I talk through some of the most common myths about ADHD and why and how they are wrong. In a bid to demystify what ADHD actually is, I cover overdiagnosis, concentration and 'fixing' ADHD.

I'm Not Bad with Time I'm Just Chronologically Challenged...
From time blindness to routines, time is really at the heart of a lot of, at least my, neurodivergent experiences and can be something that I, and many others, find incredibly difficult to manage and get right.

Dopamine Dressing: Unmasking Neurodivergence through Clothes
For as long as I can remember, I have been really interested in fashion, clothing and putting outfits together. As I have gotten older, this interest in fashion and clothing has been an ongoing theme. When I realised I was neurodivergent and started to look into unmasking and trying to figure out exactly who I was, my outward appearance and the way I dress was natrually part of that. I came across the phrase Dopamine Dressing quite early on after my diagnosis, I immediately loved th...

Impulse Control, What's That? The Reality of ADHD Impulsivity
If you've listened to previous episodes so far, you will have heard me talk a lot about my road to diagnosis and the things I have learnt since diagnosis but I thought it might be helpful and interesting for me to delve into some of the traits of ADHD and Autism, in a bit more depth. Given that this podcast was started off the back of a thought that popped into my head on a random Tuesday, resulting in me immediately ordering the equipment on Amazon and starting recording the next day, I...

Top Secret: The 5 biggest things I have learnt since discovering I am Neurodivergent
When I first got my diagnosis I naively thought that was that and I could move on. However, since then, I have learnt so much.I could sit here all day no doubt listing the millions of things that I have learnt so I have a feeling that this episode may form part of a mini neurodivergent mythbusting series where we debunk all things ADHD, Autism and more. But to start with today, I thought I would share my five biggest learnings since my diagnosis.

Late to the Party: My story of late-diagnosed Neurodivergence
Ever since I was a child, I always knew I was different, but I just didn't know how. When I got my diagnosis of ADHD at 25 years old, things started to make sense.
