Please don't skip over this episode. We know it's longer than usual and that can be really off-putting but it's well worth your time. It’s Mental Health Awareness Week and we're tackling a very important topic: ADHD and mental health. Whilst ADHD isn’t a mental health condition, evidence suggests that if you have ADHD, you're more likely to experience difficulties with your mental health. It can be difficult to untangle what's going on inside your head, and it's not always easy to ask for help.
