Open those mouths and grab a pen because we’ve got an information-packed Bagel Bite for you that should more than make up for our recent horse train antics. Kristin is starting us off with some wonderful words from a WOAF listener who reminded us of why we started this podcast and gave Kristin her first taste of that sweet, sweet podcaster celebrity status. 

Then we’re putting the ADHD back in ADHD-adjacent as we delve into the world of comorbidities, from dyslexia to Ehlers-Danlos to ghosts in the blood. Just kidding on that last one, but the rest are DEAD SERIOUS. We’re also covering auditory processing disorder, PMDD, vertical heterophoria, Irlen syndrome, and the ol’ classics anxiety and depression. Who knew comorbidities could be so fun!
