Episode 23: ADHD Awareness Month collaboration with The ADHD ‘Adults’

This is a very special episode for ADHD Awareness Month! Part 2 of our collaboration with The ADHD Adults…In Part 1, Dr Alex Conner and Dr James Brown interview us on their Podcast - Tap here to listen: https://www.adhdadult.uk/podcast/Or watch us squirm in our first ever interview on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/hyzm9AMjOqQIn this episode, we swap roles (PHEW!) and invite Alex and James onto ADHDAF for our standard, disorganised, rambling blether. The four of us have joined forces to highlight the importance of community. Using our voices collectively, learning from each other’s knowledge and experiences, and supporting each other is the most powerful way to raise awareness in the hope to influence systemic change. We really are all in this together! The support of the online ADHD community has, and continues to be a lifeline for us both; which is why we always recommend leaning into it. In particular, we are incredibly grateful to James and Alex for their invaluable work educating the masses about the neurodevelopmental condition with their Podcast and Focus Mag, for supporting late diagnosed ADHDers (us included) with their charity ADHDadultUK, and for welcoming us into the ADHD podcasting community. We are on the same team making much needed noise for the cause!  Thank you lads (lads,lads!) we love this episode, in which the best frenemies confess their undying love for one another and set us a piece of homework- which obviously we still haven’t done!In all seriousness though, où est la banque?! *TRIGGER WARNING* It’s a sweary one, with naughty words throughout with references of mental health struggles.Support the show
