Episode description

ADHD masking is a way of hiding symptoms through learned behaviors that can be healthy or unhealthy. Many people with ADHD break social rules through their behaviors and may face shame and ridicule. As a result, they develop coping strategies to hide parts of themselves.  ADHD masking can be used as a coping mechanism and sometimes may help people get by when they are young and trying to make sense of the world around them.  But eventually, this behavior becomes difficult to manage on its own.

Also I review a great, fun book written by Kirsten Milliken called PlayDHDl
