Episode description

Intuitively, we know when we're struggling with mental, physical or emotional aspects of life and when we don't have the words (or diagnosis) to explain the details to friends and family. Sometimes, we invent terms like Blake did when he said he had a Selective Learning Disorder as a kid as an attempt to explain his teacher's scoldings over his behavior, attention span and chattiness to his mother. We also explore Rachelle's curiosity in the same realm after discovering many of her habits might fit with focus and sensory issues. Blake and Rachelle take an online ADHD screening test and compare results to Blake's diagnosis of ADHD.
