This week, with Sparky just back from his holiday and Shell gearing up for hers, we decided to keep things light and dive into a topic we both adore—pets! Specifically, we're exploring the connection between pets and ADHD. Are our pets really a source of grounding and comfort, especially when dealing with symptoms like RSD, or is it just wishful thinking? Join us as we unpack this fun and heartwarming topic!
