The brain is like, enough is enough.
I'm packed in.
And prolonged periods of masking will eventually lead to burnout.
And that's your brain's self-protective mechanism to say, I'm not doing this anymore.
And burnout is actually one of the leading causes of sort of sickness from work nowadays.
Yeah, absolutely.
I'm going to give actually a real life example of this, just to show what this can do to people.
Some people will lean on alcohol and substances in a very unhealthy way, and that can lead to addictions actually.
Up to a third of people in substance misuse services have undiagnosed ADHD.
That's what the research shows.
That's a huge number.
The problem is when they go to the substance misuse services, then healthcare professionals will naturally focus on the presenting problem, which is we've got to get them off the alcohol and the drugs, which is of course important.
But really what's important is, well, what caused them to do that in the first place?
So I met a man who was in his fifties and he had decades of alcohol and cocaine abuse.
He was under substance misuse services and they had referred him to our clinic.
This guy was a real high flyer.
He was working in insurance.
He had a very senior position.
He'd lost his marriage.
He'd lost contact with his two kids who are now young adults.
