Jessamy104 27Nov2022
The suggestion Jessamy puts forward is a winner. I go down the rabbit whole when it’s not relevant to me all the time. So please Parenting section and a Self section
Under produced podcast
Show topics interest me however to endure a show ave an hour each while hosts / speakers sound like they’re on a starfish board room conference call being recorded on a laptop in the corner. Cmon really! I feel let down because listening to learn and educate myself to help myself comes with a toll of dissonance. I don’t feel like im pressing play I feel like im pulling the trigger on myself.
Hey yas might as well tell me exactly how MY anxiety affects ME and what will work for me and what wont based upon statistics collected printed from another country and different culture.
You have a degree… good for you!
You think you us, can help us treat us
This podcast is the epitome of why “ professionals” continue to fail to understand help treat all those suffering anguish mostly conditions that have manifested from being traumatically abused by others until we find our own way of coping still whilst suffering and being abused by this point the people we trust are paid to help us who are too busy reading from their biblefival and TELLING us THE VULNERABLE exactly what is wrong with us after ten minutes how now sending us home with a bouquet of whoopsi daisies aka life altering threatening changing prescribed addiction medication that we thank you so much for in all humility and emotional pain only to get your stink eye upon returning and a few sentences manipulating us time and time again until we mind a drug that works to mitigate the issues YOU WERE SCHOOLED AND PAID TO HELP US RESOLVE. Hang your masters of puppets on the wall then hang your heads in shame sending home the vulnerable with medication….. 🤪🤪🤪NONE OF YOU EVEN UNDERSTAND or know how they work in our brains, but who cares right, you get your commissions and our money however it streams to you, so all the compounding complications are obviously of course exactly chapter two of bsms which you judge upon our behaviours / reactions to your misdiagnoses, failing duty of care, negligence, malpractice.. apply applicable label… they can all be found on the back pages of the unlawful acts recited over a hard bar by the other people schooled and paid to protect the vulnerable BUT NEVER DO
If you are a professional and made it to the end of my rant touching your face and holding your breath, or rolling your eyes as you hold your bsmIV tight against your chest validating yourself i am whatever you say i am because your book says so.

Suggesting some improvements
Please hire someone who edits podcasts rather than using the recording source as an excuse for the poor quality of the audio. I edited my own podcast and every episode was recorded via a phone so writing that as an excuse doesn’t work for me. Honestly it is amazing what you can do when you know how to improve audio. An editor will also spend time removing the irrelevant content from the episode which will help to make the length more ADHD friendly. The editor can write better show notes so people know exactly what is in the episode. I also recommend that you have 2 podcasts, 1 for all of the episodes about children and the other for adults who have ADHD after all we are the ones who are more likely to listen to them. You have a lot of great content going to waste as it is not audio friendly. Help us by spending the money to make this listenable. More adult content for all of us trying to navigate life with a late diagnosis would be great. Thank you.
