In this episode, I’m breaking down five research-backed facts about ADHD that should fundamentally change how we think about diagnosis, medication, and long-term care. These aren’t hot takes. They’re uncomfortable truths.
Here’s what we’re covering:
• 80% of people stop ADHD medication within the first year—not because it “didn’t work,” but because the system failed them
• Diagnostic criteria are still wildly outdated, especially for adults, women, and older adults
• Many people seek diagnosis because someone else pushes them to, which makes staying in treatment much harder
• The “antibiotic fantasy” of ADHD treatment—why trying meds once and quitting is almost guaranteed to fail
• Too many clinicians treating ADHD aren’t properly trained, creating shame, confusion, and poor outcomes
This episode is about naming what’s broken—so you can advocate for better care, better information, and better support.
If you have ADHD, love someone who does, or work with ADHD clients or patients… this is required listening.
