This week Robbie and Jordan catch up and talk about loneliness, the difficulty of socializing, and how isolation compounds itself, which turns into a discussion about juggling and prioritizing all the different aspects of being a person.

This week Robbie and Jordan welcome David Levy of ADHDcounselling.uk and N20 Counselling back for a UK ADHD news roundup. A recent BBC Panorama documentary featuring reporter Rory Carson stirred up a lot of controversy and inspired a flurry of op-eds. David takes us through some of the responses from both sides of the fence as well as his own thoughts on the matter. Along the way we learn what's new with David's practice, his mental health fanzine The Frame and its upcoming Neurodiversity issue, and why he doesn't like thinking of stimulants as "medication." David is a BACP-certified Counsellor who practices in-person in London UK, as well as online.

This episode is brought to you by Jordan and Stopped Clock Vintage. Check out stoppedclockvintage.com for 800+ pieces of vintage clothing, collectibles and more! This week Jordan sits down with Arbind Gill, a performer and pharmacist based in Calgary who was diagnosed with ADHD last year. They get into the ups and downs of adult discovery, growing up knowing you were "different," and how ADHD has impacted her life and career. They also discuss Arbind's creative and performance work in improvisation, music, and video, her love of karaoke, and how to be a sober party animal. Arbind also talks about about growing up with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and the way OCD is misunderstood and mischaracterized in popular culture, and she also corrects some ADHD myths and misinformation about medications and interactions from one of our previous episodes. You can find Arbind on Youtube and Twitch as Arbdog, check out her videos on How To Win Solitaire Every Time, Eavesdropping in Fire Emblem and the latest instalment of her Marvel Cinematic Universe reviews. You can also see Arbind improvising with Off The Book and check out the rest of her work on her Linktree page. JORDAN'S AUDIO NOTE: due to a confluence of things going wrong during recording I had to use single-track Zoom audio which had a huge loudness disparity between me and Arbind. I did the best I could to even it out in the editing process but when there's crosstalk it can be hard to hear her. Video version available through our ⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠.

This week Robbie and Jordan talk about the tensions and contradictions of working for yourself as an ADHD-er. Aspects of ADHD make for good leaders, founders and CEOs, but ADHD people can often be crippled by rejection-sensitive dysphoria, an inability to deal well with critical feedback, and a lack of organization which can make the ins and outs of running a business difficult. Other people believe in us, so why is it so hard to believe in ourselves? More info on the YMCA Self-Employment Program Robbie recently completed can be found on their website.

It's a movie-length episode this week as Robbie & Jordan get deep in the weeds on Dr. Gabor Maté's live public ADHD diagnosis of Prince Harry, ADDitude Magazine's lengthy response, and Maté's follow-up op-ed from last week's Toronto Star. We also talk about the self-help industrial complex, public figures with cults of personality, and why you should never worry about being a hypocrite. CORRECTIONS: -Jordan gets a bunch of facts about Rush wrong at the 14 minute mark but who cares? Rush sucks. -Around 59:20 Jordan says "exacerbate the symptoms" when he meant the opposite, "mitigate." Video version available through our ⁠Patreon⁠. Production and music by Jordan Lane.

This week Robbie and Jordan chat about POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome). Have you ever "stood up too fast" and felt faint or dizzy, with fuzzy vision and a rapid pulse? POTS correlates with ADHD, Autism and other neurodivergences, but the condition isn't widely known and symptoms overlap with many other conditions. Fortunately, the tests are simple, and lifestyle changes like upping your water and sodium intake can resolve symptoms for some people. CORRECTIONS: a) The test for POTS involves measuring heart rate after standing, not blood pressure as Jordan said. b) Robbie refers to a hormone in dental freezing compound; this is epinephrine, not norepinephrine.  Robbie refers to an episode of On Being featuring Amanda Ripley and Jordan mentions an episode of The ADHD Adults on ADHD & eating disorders. You can also check out HSIHADHD 14 where we discuss our own struggles with body image and eating disorders. Video version available through our Patreon. Production and music by Jordan Lane.
