Is ADHD a Myth? Debunking Channel 4's Most Controversial Documentary

Channel 4 just announced a documentary asking one question: is ADHD a myth or a social construct? In this episode, we unpack why that framing is not just wrong — it's harmful. We talk about the science behind ADHD (including its 75–80% heritability rate, the highest of any neurodevelopmental condition), why underdiagnosis — not overdiagnosis — is the real story, and why late-diagnosed women in particular are pushed to doubt their own experience every time a headline like this drops.We get personal about our own diagnoses, the family members who "joke" that ADHD is just too much McDonald's and screen time, and why scrutinising assessment quality is fair — but denying the condition exists is not. If you've ever second-guessed your own diagnosis after seeing a headline like this, this one's for you.🎧 New episodes every week. Follow so you don't miss the next one.
