ADHD, Binocular Vision Dysfunction & The Power of Support

18 May 2025

Description

This week’s episode is a little different — because my eyes and brain have been running on low power mode, and it turns out, there’s a reason for that.After weeks of headaches, eye strain, dizziness, motion sickness, and some very questionable mood swings, I finally got evaluated and was diagnosed with vertical heterophoria — a type of binocular vision dysfunction (BVD) where your eyes are slightly misaligned vertically.In this episode, I share:What led me to finally get help (and why I ignored the signs for too long)How BVD symptoms overlap with or worsen ADHD challengesWhy we need to stop ignoring ourselves when something feels offHow support systems can make all the differenceWhy being seen, heard, and believed matters for more than just your mental healthThis is a vulnerable one — but it’s also a love letter to self-awareness, support, and saying “hey, maybe I don’t just need to try harder.”If you’ve ever questioned whether your struggles are “real enough,” this one’s for you.👉 Mentioned in this episode:The ADHD community I'm building (get on the waitlist here)
