Yeah, I definitely encountered that myth.

And we heard from a lot of listeners who did, too.

You know, there's another roadblock we've heard about, and I want to play you a message from a listener who was having trouble focusing at work.

It's really frustrating to hear stories of when doctors don't take you seriously.

And I wonder how common this kind of story is when it comes to ADHD.

Is there any connection between hormonal changes and ADHD?

I ask because we got this call from a listener.

You know, I'm thinking about the times in your life where hormones are just raging, like puberty or pregnancy or menopause.

Can that trigger this?

So are we seeing the gap in diagnoses starting to close?

Remember Molly, who we heard from at the beginning of the show?

After 20-some years of struggling, she finally got her diagnosis.

And that shaped her professional life, too.

So as a therapist with ADHD who's helping patients with ADHD, how do you think your firsthand experience shapes the way you do care?

And that's our show.

A big thank you to everyone who wrote in and called in with your stories of ADHD.

We really appreciate them.

We're working on an upcoming episode about the delights and the dangers of sugar.

How do you manage your sweet tooth?

Or do you just go for it?
