Dr. Peterson shares his personal journey, his educational challenges, and how he manages his ADHD and dyslexia. He also discusses the importance of diagnosis, the limitations of questionnaires, the need for a change in the approach to mental health diagnosis and treatment, and the role of body chemistry and metabolism in managing ADHD symptoms.
