My swiss cheese memory: Adulting With ADHD with Sarah Snyder-Castañeda OKAY-ISH

    • Mental Health

Today the creative mind behind the brand Adulting With ADHD, Sarah Snyder-Castañeda, joins Maryellen to discuss what ADHD really looks like. When you hear ADHD, many people instinctively and stereotypically think of a young child who can’t sit still, but it’s far more nuanced and affects people of all ages. The two discuss:  

How Sarah came up with the brand 

What ADHD truly is  

The lack of diagnoses and treatment with adults  

The difficulty and grief that can come with being diagnosed at an older age  

Medication and the polarizing opinions surrounding it   

The importance of talking about your struggles  

Common ADHD symptoms in adults 

The relationship between ADHD and hormones  

Advice for adults being diagnosed for the first time, or for parents whose child is being diagnosed  

The importance of being careful with the information you consume…TikTok is not a reliable source   

Their Okay-ish moments of the week!
