Class is officially in session.

In this episode, Alex goes full Professor Ferreri and gives you the ADHD info dump she wishes she had years ago.

This episode covers it all - from the surprisingly long history of ADHD (we're talking 400 BC) to dopamine, executive function, time blindness, and what you can actually do about it.

Whether you're newly diagnosed, self-diagnosed, still figuring it out, or just trying to understand someone you love, this episode is your starting point.

Because knowledge really is the first step to better days ahead.

In this episode:

• The history of ADHD (it's not a trend, we promise)
• What ADHD actually is and what it definitely isn't
• Dopamine dysregulation and why your brain has low dopamine
• All ten executive function departments and why so many feel understaffed
• Time blindness: now, not now, and nothing in between
• How to get diagnosed and how to advocate for yourself
• Treatment options: medication, therapy, coaching, accommodations, and community
