    Is it ADHD or Anxiety?

    Is it ADHD or Anxiety?

    Hey friends! In this episode, I share my personal experience of being diagnosed with ADHD when I was 19 years old and how my symptoms and treatment have changed over the years.
    While I am not a doctor, therapist, nurse or anything close to being a trained professional in this area, I get a little real about how I really feel about ADHD medication and the importance of a proper diagnosis. 


    Stick around to hear how I manage my ADHD and different tricks I’ve learned over the last 15 years. 


    In this episode, I pull information from the Mayo Clinic. Here is a link if you would like more information on Adult ADHD:
