Episode 42 : The Anti-Valentine's Day Special
With ep. 42's release date falling on Valentine's Day, we decided to explore the date dedicated to romantic love through an ADHD lens, from our own perspectives, and share findings from far more reputable resources. Valentine's Day ain't all roses, is it?! Whether you're single or attached; marrying societal pressures and ADHD can make for one hell of a toxic relationship! Speaking of which, if you haven't already heard our deep dive into ADHD and 'Romantic' Relationships, have a listen to Episode 8. In this blether we explore the growth that ADHD identification has brought. Our Dawny is no longer desperate to be liked on dates, and instead what matters is if she likes them! Similarly, Laura laments on previous performative behaviour... far more hopeless than romantic! We talk a bit about sex, and it's so cringe I'm still wondering if we should cut that bit out! LOLS ...but we've purposely left the bit about Lily Allen's 'Womanizer' toy in, in the hope she might send us a couple! ;)In all seriousness, Valentine's Day can be triggering, and statistics show that this day can hurt so many. We are so grateful for the brave and wise words of legends like Clementine Ford & Florence Given. We only wish we'd heard them sooner! But thank goodness, the time's they are a-changin'... We've learnt the hard way that the most important relationship in life is the one you have with yourself, but self love isn't easy, and ADHD can make it even harder. If you are struggling to show yourself love, know that we are sending you all of ours! xx If you've found this podcast helpful & are in a position to do so, please help us continue to help others by joining our Community.

Bonus Blether: Charlotte Mellor Meecham
Attracted to our rebellious and imperfect platform, the incredible artist Charlotte Mellor Meecham generously offered her @wispaworks illustration services for The Too Much Tour Artwork. Charlotte Mellor Meecham has recently been diagnosed with combined type ADHD. In this Bonus Blether the talented creative jumps aboard the late diagnosis rollercoaster with us. Though she has concerns about medication, she has seen really positive results. Having battled an eating disorder and been diagnosed with the comorbities of anxiety and depression, the route cause was never identified. This sadly led Charlotte to alcohol abuse and a breakdown. Finally armed with answers and a treatment plan in place, Charlotte is beginning a brand new chapter of her life in Portugal, where she is starting as a freelance illustrator. If you want some incredible artwork get in touch with her; we SERIOUSLY can't sing her praises highly enough!Charlotte is an absolute ledge! We loved chatting to her, and are so grateful for her incredible work and for having this insightful blether with us. THANK YOU SO MUCH CHARLOTTE! xxTW: Eating disorder, nervous breakdown, alcohol and drug addiction, medicationSupport the show

Episode 40: The Non-cisgender & ADHD overlap with Katie Harrison
Non-binary neurodivergent counsellor Katie Harrison LPC, based in Misouri is a total ledge! Their unique perpective as all of the above enables Katie to identify neurodvergence in clients the world over. Please note, that identification is not the same as diagnosis! Once identified, Katie helps clients navigate the adult ADHD diagnosis process in their country. Which comes with added difficulties when you are non-cisgendered.It's been said that ADHDers are highly intuitive, Katie argues that the so called ‘intuition’ of people who are Assigned Female At Birth; especially those with late diagnosed ADHD is actually due to hyper-vigilance; a trauma response. Gender is a social construct, and in this insightful episode Katie shares a link between the LGBTQIA+ community and neurodivergence that their work has uncovered.Katie was pushed outside of the classroom, which made them feel unacceptable to society. This lead to not being defined by social constructs… existing on the parameters of society. THANK YOU to the AMAZING Katie Harrison LPC for educating us and sharing their late ADHD diagnosis journey!

Episode 38: ADHD, Humour and Personal Relationships with Merrill Davis
After last week's tear jerker, be prepared to cry again, but this time with laughter! LA based Comedian/Actor Merril Davis, originally from Miami, is one of the funniest people we have had the absolute pleasure to interview! Like us, Merrill basically has a neon flashing ADHDAF sign on her forehead, and is as perplexed as we are as to how they all went unnoticed. Alongside the words that haunt our dreams such as 'could try harder', or 'you're too much'; we discovered Merrill through another one of 'those phrases'... Merril 'means well'. This was the title of her incredible standup show at The Edinburgh Fringe last year, in which she shared her experiences of undiagnosed ADHD in 19 shows to rave reviews. She connected with many late diagnosed ADHDers who felt validated by her humour and unapologetic unmasking. Merrill was labelled 'slow' in convent school, but unstructured college life was when her struggles really surfaced. Back to back job sackings, twice by her own father! Her ADHD symptoms even led to a one night stay in jail. She discovered a therapist who immediately pointed out the obvious in 2016 and was diagnosed with Combined Type ADHD. Merrill is happy to finally have 'the magic potion' to help her manage life better. At times she even feels positive about having ADHD; but then come low moments when she feels heartbroken by the time and friendships lost to ADHD tax.This interview is the perfect episode for Blue Monday week; Merrill made our faces hurt with laughter whilst helping heal our wounds with validation!

Episode 37: Laura, one year on from ADHD diagnosis
In this episode we explore where Laura is up to on the late ADHD diagnosis roller coaster and reflect on a monumental year since her diagnosis; that saw the start of a brand new chapter of her life.At dawn, the day after being diagnosed with ADHD, Laura realised that her lifelong problems were not her fault. It suddenly dawned on her that she no longer needed to hate and chastise herself. This was the dawn of a new era; which saw her start this podcast... with Dawn :) But what was the motivation behind becoming an ADHD activist? Sadly, a tragic chain of events which have impacted how Laura views the world and her place in it. Whilst navigating the grief cycle of late ADHD diagnosis, she has also been dealing with bereavement and devastating news. She questions if perhaps some of the emotional dysregulation and RSD are just sadness due to bereavement. Grief hits different for neurodivergents; and for someone finally aware of their serious time blindness; is it any wonder that she constantly hears the clock ticking? BUT it isn't all gloom and doom! Armed with the answers to her struggles and having responded very well to ADHD medication; Laura has had an INCREDIBLE year! She has overcome the anger that she feared would never shift and is hopeful that ADHD coaching and therapy will improve her life further...meaning that she might actually be able to rest at some point! :)If you are suffering with grief, you are not alone.
