My swiss cheese memory: Adulting With ADHD with Sarah Snyder-Castañeda

27 minutes

Today the creative mind behind the brand Adulting With ADHD, Sarah Snyder-Castañeda, joins Maryellen to discuss what ADHD really looks like. When you hear ADHD, many people instinctively and stereotypically think of a young child who can’t sit still, but it’s far more nuanced and affects people of all ages. The two discuss:

How Sarah came up with the brand

What ADHD truly is

The lack of diagnoses and treatment with adults

The difficulty and grief that can come with being diagnosed at an older age

Medication and the polarizing opinions surrounding it

The importance of talking about your struggles

Common ADHD symptoms in adults

The relationship between ADHD and hormones

Advice for adults being diagnosed for the first time, or for parents whose child is being diagnosed

The importance of being careful with the information you consume…TikTok is not a reliable source

Their Okay-ish moments of the week!
