: Episode 1807 – On this Saturday show, Dr. Kevin Ross Emery joins Vinnie and the two talk Dr. Kevin's upbringing, making life better for kids with ADD/ADHD, how different isn't bad, standing out (in a good way), technology and social media, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/03/different-isn't-bad-episode-1807 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods DR. KEVIN Dr. Kevin has his own podcast. https://audiojunkie.co/podcasts/the-dr-kevin-show/episodes/laughing-loving-and-alive He primarily works with ADD and ADHD patients. He isn't a medical doctor so he doesn't diagnose folks with these conditions. When Kevin was a kid, his teachers tried to hold him back because he, in their eyes, was mentally retarded. But really, his brain was just working too fast. Once he was reminded to slow down before he answered, he aced all the questions. His Dad advocated for him –– the problem wasn't too slow, it was that his teacher didn't know how ot deal with him when he was really very bright. He was a curious and smart kid, and the school didn't like it. DIFFERENT ISN'T BAD The way he sees it, ADD/ADHD isn't a disease or a disability. It's just all about learning to manage your ADD/ADHD and giving others (like schools) the tools to work with those with ADD/ADHD. Just because it's challenging doesn't mean it needs to be disabling. People may process things differently if they have ADD/ADHD. Different is not bad, it's just different. The world needs to expand to include these folks. We need to make sure we aren't stigmatizing or punishing (or overmedicating) those with ADD/ADHD. By the time many of Dr. Kevin's patients get to him, they've lost confidence and the like. We're not here to be followers, but to be leaders. We're not here to fit in, we're here to stand out! FAT DOC 2 IS AVAILABLE ON iTUNES and AMAZON Please also share it with family and friends!
