Using our ADHD diagnosis as a force for social and medical reform

Undiagnosed ADHD, at best, can be a life-long nuisance and energy-sapper, but at worst, it can trigger the worst of mental health issues, including suicide ideation.Unfortunately, this week's guest, Priyanka Patel, a pharmacist based in Manchester and who was recently diagnosed with ADHD at 27, knows this all too well.She was diagnosed with depression in 2020 and, despite her efforts to try and get an ADHD assessment, was not listened to by her GP.

Making life work for you after an ADHD diagnosis

"Don't try to fit into the world; make the world fit into you."This week’s guest is Sarah Templeton, author of the hit book ‘How NOT to Murder Your ADHD Kid – Instead Learn to be Your Child’s Own ADHD Coach’ released in 2021. She realised the key to stopping ADHD adolescents from becoming homeless, unemployed, on drugs and in prison was to educate the parents.  If parents could recognise their kids getting into these sorts of issues very early on and change their child’s life path by pursuing an early diagnosis, medication and managing their ADHD properly from the start, the result would mean the prisons, homeless hostels and rehabs would NOT be packed to the rafters with ADHD. Sarah is a vocal advocate for change and believes The ADHD Act is long overdue. She is on the APPG for ADHD at the Houses of Parliament and has vowed to be the voice for the tens of thousands of young offenders and adult offenders with undiagnosed ADHD – who cannot get their voices heard within the prison system. Yet without the correct ADHD diagnosis and medication, their life is destined to be one spent persistently in and out of prison.During this episode, Kate and Sarah speak about:ADHD within the prison systemHarnessing ADHD to re-focus your lifeWhy you may not recognize your amazing skills and abilities with ADHDWomen coping with an ADHD diagnosisThe relief after getting a diagnosis The price of ignoring our ADHDCriticism and the impact that has on us historicallyLeaning into our strengths and listening to the positives Making the world work for you The pressure on un-diagnosed ADHD women to cope Using your dopamine-seeking ADHD brain for goodSarah's plans for the ADHD Act in the prison system and policeYou can connect with Sarah via her websites www.sarahtempleton.org.uk and www.headstuffadhdtherapy.co.uk. If you enjoy the podcast, why not join Kate's ADHD Women's Wellbeing Collective, where you get access to monthly live workshops, exclusive audio content and new resources specifically for the membership?

Reprogramming our mindset to enjoy a more rewarding life

ADHD can bring many opposing challenges and connotations and can feel like heavy energy to deal with. Yet through gentle curiosity, we can find new options to reprogram our thinking and switch our emotional energy to create a happier, calmer and more fulfilling family life. Despite the challenges, we can focus on the things that we're proud of and which lift us. We can create more internal strength and greatness as parents - life can be easier than we believe. This week’s guest is a mum of six and special education teacher and college lecturer, Avigail Gimpel.

Advocating for your neurodiversity in the workplace

"Embracing and working with our strengths teaches us to thrive with ADHD."Speaking about an autism or ADHD diagnosis within the workplace can feel daunting, exposing and scary. However, when we advocate for ourselves within our work setting, we are enabling the support, care and accommodations we deserve. Working with - and no longer - against our brains means we can excel more in our careers without the burnout and exhaustion that typically comes with neurodiversity. Often the way we work can look different to others, but that doesn't mean it's less effective. The more we talk about this and allow different options to be implemented, the healthier, happier and more productive we feel within our work environment. This week’s guest, Samantha Hiew is the Director of ADHD Girls, a company founded with a social mission to empower girls and women with ADHD through effective advocacy, education and specialists’ insights.With a background in healthcare communications and a PhD in Cancer Research, Samantha is passionate about helping individuals with ADHD access employment and training organisations to provide the support they need to thrive in their circumstances, thereby increasing happiness and wellbeing and improving productivity.During this episode of The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast, Kate and Samantha spoke about: Feeling alone after an ADHD diagnosis The power of anecdotal experiencesThe benefits of being around others like you and community  Sam's autism diagnosis and her surpriseADHD and Autism often going hand in handNeeding to have a passion, fulfilment to stave off depressionSam's mission with ADHD diagnosisRecognition Responsive Euphoria and what it is and looks like Navigating ADHD and Neurodiveristy in the workplaceHow employers can boost their ADHD employee's confidence Advocating for yourself in the workplaceEmbracing our strengths and interests to thrive with ADHDYou can connect with Samantha via adhdgirls.co.uk or on social media via Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter, @adhd_girlsThanks to our sponsor, Brain.

Rediscovering yourself after years of medication

"Find something you're passionate about...and you're going to do it really well."This week’s episode is with Audrey Stimpson, an internationally published master photographer by trade who has now made it her sole mission to share her story of Adderall addiction and how she freed herself after 23 years. Memphis-based Audrey, trained as a fashion photographer, working in the elite fashion and modelling industry of NYC for 8 years. She had the privilege of shooting for top brands and major publications like Vogue, Elle, Forbes, and Robb Report to name a few. In 2018, she co-founded Madison and Melrose, an A-Z digital marketing/branding company that specializes in content creation. She has a growing platform of over 23k followers, the majority based in NYC and the MidSouth. Audrey had been prescribed Adderall to treat her ADHD since the age of seven, the same year the drug first entered the market, making her one of the longest case studies. For a while, Adderall made her feel invincible. From the photoshoot straight to the after-party, Audrey was using Adderall to slay! But, after 23 years of use, the amphetamine had taken its toll, leading to psychosis, gut health issues, body dysmorphia, Addorexia, and a never-ending cycle of shame. Now trained as a functional medicine coach, she helps others on their Adderall-free journey and writing the guidebook that she wished she’d had. She is developing an ADHD nutrition coaching program, and she recently launched a blog dedicated to helping those directly affected by Adderall addiction. She is also addressing real fears in real-time on TikTok, the preferred social media for those with ADHD,  reaching upwards of 80,000 people per post. Kate and Audrey talked about: Being medication-free after 23 years of being on ADHD medsHow she came off the meds and being scared of operating without themHer training as a Functional Nutrition Coach to help with ADHDUsing EMDR therapy for addiction Overcoming her dependency on medicationGut healing and autoimmune issues alongside ADHDThe power of our diet and lifestyle to help with ADHDHer book, How-To-Thrive-Off-Adderall guidebook, Accidental ADDict.Connect with Audrey via Instagram or on her website Audreystimpson.com, where you can also sign up for her FREE video guide on how to become Adderall free using EMDR Therapy.NB - I am most definitely pro the right medication for ADHD, just not dependency and addiction to the wrong medication.Kate Moryoussef is a women’s ADHD Lifestyle & Wellbeing coach and EFT practitioner helping overwhelmed yet unfulfilled (many with ADHD like her) women find more calm, balance, health, compassion, creativity and clarity in their lives.
