May 6, 2024
01:03:41

Today’s guest is the one and only Dr Alex Conner, a professor and consultant in medical biology, as well as a fellow coach and podcast host of The ADHD Adults Podcast. Dr Alex is all about cutting the BS around ADHD and instead sharing fact-based research on what ADHD actually is.

In this episode, we debunk common myths about ADHD and explore if there is any truth behind sugar leading to a misdiagnosis of ADHD, ADHD stereotypes, the relationship between ADHD and addiction, cannabis as a treatment for ADHD, and the crucial role of community and therapy in coping with ADHD.

Alex also openly shares his own story of struggles living with undiagnosed ADHD and the complex process of getting a diagnosis.

Alex is a massive inspiration and brilliant role model to any ADHDer striving to turn their struggles into strength. Take a listen to his brilliant podcast ADHD Adults and make sure to support and use the wealth of knowledge available at his charity ADHD Adult UK.

So listen in and learn more about your ADHD… Let’s get untangled and show the world what we’re made of!"
