It's episode 27! Sharna is back and we are going deep into the tricky subject of ADHD and lying. This is one of the most challenging and shameful things that comes with having a neuromagical brain. We pull apart the various things that contribute to the common misconception that ADHDers a compulsive liars and dig into the elements that actually happen and why they can make it seem like we're lying. We also look at the fact that many neurodivergent people simply cannot actually lie and what does this contradiction mean for navigating the multitude of relationships we need to on a daily basis. This was a fascinating subject and we all learnt a lot about ourselves doing the research for this one.
Topics covered:
Listener Question: How to communicate authentically when you're incapable of lying?Exaggeration and embellishmentLying to avoid rejectionIs masking basically lying?lying vs survivingwhen someone else lies... WE KNOW!

Dr Di is back for episode 26! This is her third visit and today she is taking us through some of the challenges some ADHDers have with food and obesity. We want to be clear, we are not here for any form of size-shaming nor do we believe that larger bodies are in any way bad or wrong. What is interesting is looking at the sensory issues that might be affecting your relationship with food and how when we go looking for dopamine, sometimes that means we empty the pantry - this isn't a good thing in many ways! As Dr Di is a scientist and a Doctor, she explains some of the medications that could be used for treating some of these dopamine and mood challenges. Another reminder that if you have ANY questions about treatments or medications, you need to speak with your health care provider and do not take this as advice, because it absolutely isn't.

In episode 25, we go into the nooks and crannies of Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria and while it may not be one of the diagnostic criteria for ADHD, it is incredibly common for people who are neuro-magical. We take some listener feedback and Callie goes into an RSD pit. We then explore a listener question - How do you cope when someone you work with doesn't like you?
Topics covered:
Listener feedback - do we do too many sidequests?How to seek and give feedbackShould you approach the person in question?Preemptive groundwork to avoid conflictThings to stop doing immediatelyWhat if it can't be fixedTHAT Panorama episodeTaste test - raspberry Twisties
