Have you ever noticed that people with ADHD say some pretty
negative things about themselves? After recording 50 episodes of
the ADHD Aha! podcast, we certainly had noticed this. In
this special episode, host Laura Key and producer Jessamine Molli
count down the five most common labels and adjectives guests use
to describe their ADHD symptoms and behaviors. They listen to
clips and dive deep into ADHD myths and stereotypes. Laura also
shares her take on what the ADHD Aha! podcast is really
about.
