Talking to My Husband About His ADHD
Subscribe
In this episode of Swinging Upside Down I talk with my husband, Michael Lautman, about his ADHD diagnosis as an adult.
This is a special episode for us. ADHD is a big part of our family's everyday life. We've talked about doing an episode like this for a long time. We had a lot of fun recording this together talking about Michael's experiences.
Michael was diagnosed when he was 31. During the conversation we discuss:
* the events that led to his diagnosis* getting diagnosed and is feelings around it* early childhood stories* medication * coping strategies* self-esteem
The music for the podcast was provided by the amazing Yaron Cohen.

Episode 3: Using Routines to Thrive During Self-Isolation
In Episode 2, I talked about how routines can help kids, both under regular circumstances and especially during these trying times.
As parents, we can use routines in our days to help us cope as well. Knowing that we have a schedule, and doing our best to stick to it (with some flexibility) can make our days go more smoothly.
Stay healthy everyone! -
Episode 2: Using Routines to Survive Self-Isolation
The Cynthia Miller-Lautman Show is now The Swinging Upside Down Podcast!
The COVID-19 global pandemic is having a huge impact, and this is especially true for parents, whether or not their children have disabilities. Many of us are trying to juggle a full-time job (suddenly done from the house) while our kids are at home. Add to that the stress of keeping away from friends and family, and the general uncertainty of the situation, and we get a recipe for stress.
In this episode, I discuss how you can use routines to make your days manageable, and give you some examples of what we're doing in our family to help make our kids more independent at managing their time. -
