In this episode I discuss the relationship between hyperactivity, anxiety, lethargy and shame, and what drives these behaviours.

Episode 22 - Indecision, Adapting to Change and Portraying Narcissistic Tendencies

In this episode, I discuss how ADHD can effect your ability to adapt to change on both large and small scales. I talk about my crippling levels of indecisiveness and how I struggle to make even the smallest of decisions.
