In this Hot Topic episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott react to new research into a potential ADHD treatment involving trigeminal nerve stimulation (TNS) — a device designed to stimulate brain activity during sleep.

Drawing on their own lived experience with ADHD, they reflect on how treatments like medication can support emotional regulation, focus, and daily functioning, but also highlight the reality that ADHD is far more complex than just “attention deficits.”

The conversation challenges the way ADHD is framed in research and media, questioning why studies often focus narrowly on concentration while overlooking the broader cognitive, emotional, and sensory experiences that come with neurodivergence.

A thoughtful and candid discussion about ADHD treatment, scientific limitations, and the importance of looking beyond outdated definitions of neurodivergence.
