"I was going to tell you both the story of why I'm not diagnosed as ADD. So I tried to get a formal diagnosis," she says. "He told me that I couldn't have ADD because I did well in school as a kid, which I was like, are you serious?" She adds: "It illuminates a lot of my problems with Western psychology."
