Episode 16: Hyperfocus
Explicit content warning
03/07/22 • 29 min
In Episode 16, James and Alex tackle the thorny, misunderstood issue of hyperfocus. For once, there is some decent psychoeducation (because James wrote it), our personal reflections on how hyperfocus impacts us and some 'Top Tips', which for once James meaningfully contributes to (this is debatable). 'What did James lose this week?" returns and Alex reads out 'totally real' emails. There is some corpsing in this episode.

Episode 15: Comorbidities of ADHD
In Episode 15, Alex and James discuss the massively long list of shit that ADHD often comes with, or to be more technical the 'comorbidities' of ADHD. As usual, there is some psychoeducation around what the comorbidities are, personal reflections on our comorbidities (James's list is so long you might want to play that bit at 2x speed) and some 'Top Tips'. 'What did James lose this week?" continues to Alex's annoyance and Alex gets to read more emails that are definitely real. Alex informs us that the egg came first and James clears out the fun cupboard.

Episode 17: What is 'executive function' and why don't we have it?
In Episode 17, the ADHD adults Alex and James cover 'executive function', the set of higher-level thinking skills which are, well. As usual, the podcast contains some psychoeducation about what executive function is, our personal reflections on how not having executive function skills like planning, working memory and inhibition impacts us and we'll share some 'Top Tips' (will James's be as useless as ever?). 'What did James lose this week?" returns to Alex's dismay and Alex continues to get communication from Kidderminster AND reads out 'actuall' emails. James has a 'dick to phone' in what is possibly the worst joke ever and Alex asks a stupid question.
