OUTDATED!!! Women and ADHD from a German Newspaper Article

I have translated in real-time a newspaper article from the “Regionale Tageszeitung” newspaper in Southern Germany from the Allgäuer Zeitung group, who interviewed a renowned ADHD Psychotherapist, Dr Astrid Neuey-Libowicz

I decided to speak for over 1 hour and 55 minutes on this episode to explain the initial contact I had with Dr Astrid and to discuss this article in length.

On 19.9.22 at 4.30pm I had a Zoom meeting with Astrid, who wrote the book “Habe ich AD(H)S. “Have I got AD(H)D

We were meant to speak for 30 minutes but after the 12 minute mark she said “I have better things to do” that to chat with me, which I felt was downright rude. 

She wanted to look through all of my work, because I wanted to build up my community and to  work with her, but she was quite resistant to this!!

This is reason why I actually don’t actively work with the German population. Because it is exhausting!!!!

And I don’t get anywhere with this community!!!

Plus, Astrid’s book is in my opinion a complete waste of time!!!

I find her completely outdated, there are some interesting points from this article from Saturday 3rd May 2025 which was written by Felicitas Lachmayer, but she mentions :

• 2 types of ADHD. Hyperactive and Inattentiion

When in fact there are 7 different types!!

She writes in her book about ADD!

and her book is from 2023!!

But ADHD is the term that SHOULD be used!!!

I reference

Dr Ron Sterling who talks about ADD. : podcast episode https://open.spotify.com/episode/3pjTDMZ0N3FkTh3YRVNipc?si=VDSCjwkqT9ObFprEt8dhag

and describes the terminology of ADD to ADHD, which Dr Astrid should read immediately.

The importance that innatentive ADHD doesn't just affect women.

Just look at my good friend, Dr Saara Happenen!!!!

In conclusion, ADHD and Women is an interesting topic but there is no mention of AUDHD, the Autism and ADHD component working together.

This isn’t a slagging match but this article is no different to ones that were released 5 years ago.

There is ZERO extra value!!!

Tell me what you think via Spotify, but if people are in the area of Neurodiversity people need to drop the “I am better than you concept” and should stay up-to-date.

If you don’t believe me, listen to the aforementioned linked episodes, because I put Neurodiversity at TOP priority and have the willingness to work with a great multitude of people in an area I love so much.
