Turning Points: Navigating Mental Health Unmasking Diagnoses Later in Life: Autism and ADHD in Adults | S4E4
Host Frantzces Lys explores the stories of adults who discovered their autism or ADHD and their overlap (sometimes called “AuDHD”) later in life. With a compelling lineup of guests, she discusses the challenges and unique perspectives of living with these conditions, shining a light on how they shape everyday experiences.
Frantzces first speaks with Grace Oribhabor, a high school teacher and advocate, whose late-life diagnosis has inspired her advocacy and personal growth. Grace’s story highlights the importance of embracing one’s unique traits and seeking support.
Next, Frantzces is joined by Dr. Thor Bergerson, founder of ADHD Boston and a leading expert on ADHD and co-occurring disorders. Dr. Bergerson offers insights into diagnostic barriers, misconceptions, and the benefits of a holistic approach to managing ADHD.
Finally, Frantzces converses with Eric, a journalist and mental health advocate who shares his journey with ADHD and autism. Eric’s experiences provide a powerful testament to resilience and self-discovery.
