13. AuDHD - When Autism meets ADHD

WARNING: This episode does contain explicit language  Autism and ADHD were always thought of as mutually exclusive conditions, but in recent years it’s become possible to get a diagnosis of both.   Now, more and more people are recognising they have traits of both autism and ADHD, commonly known as ‘AuDHD’. But because of the opposing nature of these neurotypes, ‘AuDHD’ can feel like an internal ‘tug-of war’. In this episode Sonia Gray speaks to Rich Rowley and Annabelle March, who describe their lived-experience as AuDHDers.   And Clinical Psychologist Sarah Watson, talks about the challenges, and strengths that come with these unique minds. GUESTS:   Dr Sarah Watson, Clinical Psychologist, Totally Psyched Rich Rowley Annabelle March  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
