My perspective on ADHD has changed

What an interesting and enlightening perspective. ADHD is a gift not a curse. If I was within a 10 hour radius of Dr D I would totally book a session with him.

Refreshing and encouraging outlook on ADHD

Very interesting take on ADHD being a sensitivity and not just a disorder. As a mom of an adult child who was diagnosed with ADHD, this podcast encouraged me greatly! Dr. D shared his philosophy that “people with so-called ADHD are humanities gifts.” Finally a doctor that can appreciate people as individuals with something amazing to offer. He seems genuinely interested in being part of the solution in helping people truly thrive! Looking forward to more podcasts on this important topic.
