Recognizing Adult ADHD & How ADHD Affects Your Sleep
S2 EP10 - This time, we're tackling a topic that most of us don't know
much about Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and its impact
on our sleep and mental health.
We'll give you a lowdown on ADHD's history, symptoms, and
how it can affect your daily life. We'll also discuss some helpful management
strategies and medications to help you handle its challenges. And let's not
forget about the positive side of ADHD, like having a creative mind and quick
decision-making abilities.
So, if you're struggling to get a good night's sleep or
finding it tough to manage your mental health, the Bed Head Cast is just what
you need.
It doesn't matter whether you've been diagnosed with ADHD,
think you might have it, or are just curious. This episode is full of helpful
information, personal stories, and expert advice that can help you manage your
