Your ADHD Besties

8. "ADHD medication DESTROYS my appetite and I forget to eat. Any TIPS?" 🍽️🙃


Listen Later

Heyyyyy ADHD bestie babes! ✨

On today's show:

• Grace shares a drama from her week about how ADHD meds have led to appetite suppression/meal skipping, and how a perfect storm last Friday ended up with a little trip to the hospital. 🫠🏥 (A reminder for this segment, that we're not doctors and seek professional help if you need.)

• Divergent dilemma - Grace asks Tara for help with the executive functioning of feeding herself, because it is a STRUGG-LE. 😩 We discuss the ADHD tendency towards a dopamine-seeking relationship with food, how to deal with appetite suppression and how to change our inner-narratives that packaged food isn't nutritious and that we have to eat 'CLEAN' wholefoods all the time.

• Ireggy Seggy: This week we asked YOU to contribute to the podcast with our brand new segment called "Confession Session". 🙊 We asked our Instagram besties "What's your latest secret hyperfixation/recent impulse buy??" and we're reading out your answers. 💬🫠

• Let's get the verdict on 'barefoot shoes'. Tara hates them, Grace is agnostic. Vote in our POLL (on Spotify or IG @adhdbestiespodcast!)

REC LINKS:

• Tara recommended the Harry Potter fanfic book she's obsessing over - Manacled, by Sen Lin Yu
• Grace recommended Video Speed Controller Chrome extension, so you never have to sit through a mind-numbing YouTube ad again, and can skip the ads!

Aaaand, we'll be back with a MINISODE on Monday morning featuring the second divergent dilemm (we didn't have time for in this ep today). Keep an eye out! 👀

Your ADHD besties,
Grace & Tara xx
