Patricia Sung was diagnosed with ADHD in her first year of
college. It wasn’t until she became a mother, and other people
relied on her, that she realized just how much ADHD affected her.

Patricia now hosts the Motherhood in ADHD podcast. Join
Patricia and host Laura Key as they talk about managing emotions
with ADHD. Patricia explains the concept of “raging” — that
moment when you go from 99 to 100 and emotions boil over. She
also shares strategies that can help.
