28 Nov 2025
Send us a textThis week, we’re thrilled to welcome David Richmond from @NeuroDadsDiary—a fantastic Instagram page that feels like a neurodivergent dad’s journal. David shares his honest and inspiring journey with both ADHD and autism, kicking off with a deep dive into the diagnosis process, the right to choose, and the reality of those endless waiting lists.We unpack what inspired Neuro Dads Diary, how it’s building a supportive community for dads, and why being open with your kids about ADHD matters. Parenting with ADHD is a wild ride—David gets real about perfectionism, executive dysfunction, coming alive at night, and the ongoing adventure of fatherhood. We also swap stories about time blindness, organisation struggles, and how AI (yes, even dinner-making bots!) can lend a hand.We chat about the ups and downs of couple life with ADHD—how partners can be a lifeline (or sometimes, let’s be honest, it feels like having another kid in the house!). David opens up about wearing a Sunflower Lanyard for hidden disabilities (find out more here: https://hdsunflower.com/uk), and what being a “sunflower friend” really means.To wrap up, David shares his “good, bad, and ugly”—from time management wins and eating habits to those all-too-familiar feelings of guilt. Plus, we talk about the vision for Neuro Dads Diary going forward.Tune in for honest stories, practical tips, and plenty of laughs.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/zzrHZqfd5b8Connect with David: https://www.instagram.com/neurodadsdiaryJoin our community:Website: https://www.adhdorlife.comSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/46i0iGiwmgvFrlOzoW2SnSYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ADHDorLifepodFacebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/adhdrelationshipsunfilteredInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/adhdorlifepodTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/adhdorlifepodIf you’re a parent, partner, or just curious about neurodiversity, this episode is for you.
