S3 E3 - ADHD medication: the habits it unlocked.

from Glitchy Switch: What ADHD feels like to an adult. · host Martin Gale

In this episode of Glitchy Switch, I unpack a phrase I kept hearing when I started ADHD medication: “grooving new habits”. It sounded sensible, but I had no idea what it actually meant in real life — or what it would feel like. So I share what I’ve learnt since starting a medication like methylphenidate: that the real gift isn’t superpowers, it’s space — enough space to notice old reflexes, make a different choice, and repeat that choice often enough that it becomes your new default. In this episode: What “grooving new habits” actually means in plain English. How medication can create a tiny gap between impulse and action. Why paying attention and listening properly can be a habit. How I’ve started catching myself before I react. Why the habits can still hold, even when the meds wear off.
