Ep. 48: Anxiety Pt. 2–ADHD Enters the Mix

In Part 1 we set the anxiety stage, and now, we’re ready to dazzle you as we flawlessly dance across it.    With Kristin playing herself in the lead role of ‘Most Anxious ADHDer Alive’ and Grace fucking around in the background, we’ll take you on a whimsical ear journey through the complicated one-two step of anxiety and ADHD. Metaphorically look uponst us as we Fosse dance into the comorbidity rates between ADHD and anxiety, Monster Mash through common anxiety-inducers for ADHDers, and pop, lock, and drop it all the way into treatment options and beyond.    Like a moth to the hair, this episode will both frighten and delight you, so make sure you get your ticket for what may not be the most educational anxiety episode out there, but you’ll learn something.  Resources When ADHD and Anxiety Occur Together I Psych Central Adult ADHD and comorbid disorders: clinical implications of a dimensional approach - PMC (nih.gov) ADHD and Anxiety: Understanding the Link & How to Cope (additudemag.com) Childhood attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder in adults with anxiety disorders - PubMed (nih.gov) ADHD with comorbid anxiety: a review of the current literature - PubMed (nih.gov) Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and executive functioning in emerging adults.
