Connecting ADHD and Mood Disorders: A Research Exploration

Welcome back to this weeks episode of The ADHD Skills Lab! Producer Sarah here, ready to give you this weeks breakdown.

Going to start by flagging that this episode was deeply emotional all around, from initial research all the way through to reviewing post-edit.

That said... ***TRIGGER WARNING: strong mentions and verbal depictions of social stigma and rejection.. if you would like to skip ahead to the discussion of ADHD and restlessness, please jump to 19:45 in the recording.***

You can find all of the links/resources from this episode down below, I think the most I have ever posted! Jackpot!

ADHD Skills Discussed:

1. ADHD-friendly Mindfulness 
2. More purposes for a sensory-friendly space in your home
3. Physical and Active Somatic therapies for restlessness, anxiety, frustration, etc.

Thanks for being here. Until next time,
~ Sarah (Podcast Producer)
