Today's favor is tomorrow's job.

You heard that?

So good.

So true.

Be interesting to see what people write in the comments.

Why do you think women have been missed for so long in the ADHD space?

Dr. Asad, welcome back.

Thank you for having me back, Alex.

Huge privilege to have you back.

And before we start, I want to address the elephant in the room.

I'm going to put you on the spot a little bit to start.

One of the criticisms that many people in the ADHD space have had in the past is that it's not okay for men to discuss female ADHD.

What's your stance on this?

Is it okay for us two men to sit here today and discuss the struggles that women have with ADHD?

The late diagnosis crisis that is happening with so many women having been let down for so long, I truly believe having spoken to so many women on this podcast is heartbreaking.

Being misunderstood, being othered, being genuinely feeling like they're broken for most of their life is truly heartbreaking.

In your practice, do you see many patients that stick with you as being truly heartbreaking?

If you were to think of one standout patient who you saw and you were truly heartbroken by, could you think of one?

Truly heartbreaking, Asad.

Thank you so much for seeking permission and for sharing that.
