from AuDHD and Then Some. · host Ellie AuDHD of AuDHD and then some.

In this episode of AuDHD And Then Some, I answer a question that comes up again and again in neurodivergent communities:“What’s the point of getting diagnosed later in life?”For years, I felt too much, not enough, too weird, too sensitive, and like I was somehow failing at being a person. As my children were diagnosed with ADHD and autism, I began to recognise myself in their experiences and started my own late-diagnosis journey.In Part 1, I talk about growing up feeling different, the labels I carried throughout my life, and why seeking an AuDHD diagnosis changed everything.#AuDHD #ADHD #Autism #LateDiagnosis #Neurodivergent #WomenWithADHD #AdultAutism #Neurodiversity #ADHDPodcast #AutismPodcast
