ADHD, Masturbation, Its Value, and the Research
At Attention Talk Radio, we like to help people with ADHD pay attention to what they are paying attention to, and our favorite guest on today’s topic is Dr. Ari Tuckman (www.adultADHDbook.com). In this episode we focus on sex, intimacy, and masturbation in the context of attention. As we’ve learned from Dr. Tuckman, some of the treatment for folks with low libido involves mindfulness, or attention training, to notice those passing sexual thoughts, feelings, desires, or fantasies and then amplify them. This obviously ties in to masturbation. Sex involves shifting attention as well, because we shift from attending to our partner's pleasure to shifting back to our own physical sensations and mental fantasies. In the context of attention, masturbation is simpler because you don't need to attend to another person and can focus on your own physical and fantasy experience. If this is true and done with intention, can sex and masturbation be used as a mindfulness exercise to help those with ADHD regulate attention? Join us and learn more.

Could SMART Goals Obstruct Those with ADHD?
Specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and timely make up SMART goals. Countless motivational speakers preach them. Question is, are they the very things that inhibit those with ADHD from moving forward? Does focus on outcome blind you to the process to achieve goals? Should those with ADHD focus on outcome and figure out the process to get there, or focus on the process and use it as a compass to get to the outcome? In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, ADHD and attention coach Jeff Copper banters with ADHD parenting coach Caroline Maguire (www.necoaching.com) on this fascinating topic. If you have read the books, gone to the webinars, gotten all jacked up, gone home, and failed to execute, this is the show that will be at the top of your list.

You Know You Have ADHD When...
Comedian Jeff Foxworthy has popularized the phrase, “You may be a redneck if….” He then adds a peculiar behavior or trait poking fun at what it means to be a redneck. As we've learned from comedian Rick Green, you can't laugh and cry at the same time. Often, humor is used as a shield, and research tells us that laughter is healthy in healing. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, we interview Elaine Taylor-Klaus (www.impactadhd.com) and have fun with our own angle, “You know you have ADHD when….” If you have ADHD and want to have a laugh, this is a show you don't want to miss.

ADHD, Sex, Intimacy, and Play, Oh Boy!
Got attention deficit hyperactivity disorder? We’ve got a show for you! We’ve done interviews on the impact of ADHD on sex and intimacy; we’ve done shows on the value of play for those with ADHD; now, we are really going to play! That is, play around with the impact of play on sex and intimacy for those with ADHD with your clothes both on and off! We’re playing around with two of our favorite quests, Dr. Ari Tuckman (www.adultADHDbook.com) and Dr. Kirsten Milliken (www.PlayDHD.com). We’re talking about how sex can be an area of play for adults and how being playful with your clothes on makes it easier to have more playful intimacy. We’re also talking about the importance of balancing workloads between partners so there is time and desire to play sexually and allow play to ignite dopamine and put their neurochemicals on a level playing field with each other. If you’ve got ADHD and like to play, this show speaks for itself.
