As the global shortage of ADHD medication continues, some people have told us they’re turning to unlicensed products being advertised to them online, in desperation.
Amy Barbour tells us she felt she had no option but to spend money on products which didn’t work. While, Nicky Baker from the Advertising Standards Authority explains why the organisation has banned several adverts and how AI is helping them to crack down on companies making false claims.
Consultant psychiatrist, Professor Marios Adamou gives some advice on what you should do if your medication is running low. Remember, always speak with your GP when making decisions around your ADHD medication.
Plus, bestselling author Jack Jordan joins us. He’s best known for his psychological thrillers full of twists and turns – but it was agoraphobia that got him writing his first book at the age of 17. Now aged 31, Jack’s just published his 8th novel – Redemption – which helped him accept his diagnosis of PTSD.
He also gives some tips for you budding writers out there.
Presented by Paul Carter and Emma Tracey
Editors: Beth Rose and Ben Mundy
