My brother, prison and undiagnosed Neurodivergence
from AuDHD and Then Some. · host Ellie AuDHD of AuDHD and then some.
In this deeply personal Unmasked Diary Room episode, I open up about my brother, our complicated relationship, and the painful reality of watching someone struggle through life feeling misunderstood. We talk about undiagnosed neurodivergence, high intelligence, emotional dysregulation, shame, isolation, and how ADHD/autistic traits can sometimes go unnoticed for years — especially in people who don’t fit the stereotypes. This episode isn’t about excusing harmful choices or romanticising prison. It’s about grief, loyalty, family, and wondering how different life might have been if somebody had recognised the signs sooner. A raw and emotional AuDHD reflection on love, misunderstanding, and the people society often gives up on too quickly. #AuDHD #ADHDPodcast #AutismPodcast #Neurodivergent #LateDiagnosis #MentalHealthPodcast #ADHDWomen #UnmaskedDiaryRoom
