16. AuDHD, meltdowns & workplace accommodations (autism + ADHD) with Olivia @neurodiversing

Hiiii best besties!!

On today's show, we have another amazing GUESTIE 😍 the gorgeous Olivia from @neurodiversing on Instagram and TikTok. 

Olivia joins us all the way from the UK to help answer some dilemmas about AuDHD (co-existing Autism & ADHD presentations) and play an old fave Ireggy Seggy with us. 

• Dilemma #1 - "How do you distinguish your autistic traits from your ADHD traits and what was your diagnosis journey like? An autism assessment is so expensive, is it worth it?"

• Dilemma #2 - "I have AuDHD and I’m struggling so much in my workplace, I haven’t told my boss about my neurodivergence but I’m wondering if there is anything that I can do to help to make my workplace easier for me?"

• Dilemma #3 - "I love my friends, but I feel guilty for missing Friday night drinks or resentful when I force myself to go. By the end of the work week, my social battery is drained, but my friends think I'm avoiding them. Why do I feel weird about enjoying a quiet night in more th out?"

Ireggy Seggy: Pipe dreams - early bedtimes, reading by candlelight & not picking our skin are suuuuuper realistic for us 🫠
