A diagnosis of ADHD in Elyssa's early twenties gave an explanation for so much of her childhood and teenage years.
At sixteen Elyssa reached a critical point in her life and felt the need to be physically hurt rather than to be where she was.
In this podcast we talk about the early memories where Elyssa felt 'different' and how that played out over the years. We also chat about what she does now as an advocate for mental health and ADHD.
Elyssa shares her most vulnerable side with an aim to help other people not feel so alone.

Journey to and from addiction – with Ryan
Ryan grew up moving from house to house and most of his childhood memories are of his parents fighting. Growing up with no stability and an inability to regulate his emotions Ryan fell into drugs.
Drugs were the escape from the feelings and thoughts he didn't know what to do with. It brought connection and comfort through his teenage years until his 18th birthday when it all changed.
