Episode description

In part 2, Alex Partridge joins Dr Alex George to dive deep into the process of getting an ADHD diagnosis, why they believe the word ‘deficit’ is an inaccurate description of ADHD and unpack why it’s vital to share your worries with others.

Plus, Alex reveals why so many women have been misdiagnosed with anxiety instead of ADHD and flips the script on traits we commonly associate with ADHD - people rarely focus on the positive elements such as boosted creativity!
