    Why Everyone Thinks They Have ADHD Today | Dr. Vishal Kasal Expert Psychiatrist Explains

    In the age of social media, AI tools, and constant digital stimulation, attention problems have become increasingly common. But does that mean everyone has ADHD?  In this insightful podcast episode, Dr. Vishal Kasal, Consultant Psychiatrist and NIMHANS alumnus, explains why ADHD is being widely discussed today—and why awareness does not always equal diagnosis.  Hosted by Dr. Sunil M.R., the conversation explores how people now research symptoms online, come with self-diagnoses, and how clinicians actually evaluate ADHD through structured assessments.  The episode highlights key differences between everyday distraction, stress-related attention issues, and true ADHD. It also explains the role of impulsivity, delayed gratification, and emotional dysregulation.  Parents, professionals, and adults questioning their attention challenges will gain clarity on when to seek help and what effective treatment really looks like.  Interested in learning more ADHD related facts, subscribe to our channel so you don’t miss any relevant information from our experts.

    Addiction: Gender Roles, Family Expectations & Changing Mindsets | Dr. Sunil M.R x Dr. Shreedevi A U

    Addiction doesn’t exist in isolation — it’s a family and social issue. In this episode of Cadabam’s Insight, host Dr. Sunil M.R talks with Dr. Shreedevi A U from NIMHANS about the systemic impact of addiction.  Together, they discuss how gender roles, family expectations, and cultural beliefs can either support recovery or make it harder. Dr. Shreedevi shares real experiences from her clinical work with families affected by substance use and explains why healing must involve the entire family system.  💡 Topics explored in this episode:  How social stigma affects women seeking addiction treatment The emotional and developmental toll on children growing up in addictive households Why permissive and over-controlling parenting can both lead to substance misuse The gateway nature of tobacco and early exposure in adolescents How social workers bridge the gap between medical and emotional recovery The importance of cultural understanding in treatment planning This conversation helps us rethink addiction — not as personal failure, but as a social and psychological condition shaped by relationships and systems.  #AddictionAwareness #MentalHealthPodcast #CadabamsInsights #FamilySupport #Psychiatry #SocialWork
