In this solo episode, Curiously ADHD, Julie Legg sits down with a cup of coffee to answer frequently asked questions she’s received over time from people trying to make sense of ADHD. This episode is both personal and practical, aiming to empower listeners through shared experiences and pragmatic guidance rather than medical advice. Julie emphasizes that she is not a medical professional, but a diagnosed ADHDer and author who has spent years researching and speaking with others in the community. 5 KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED0:00:00 Intro 0:01:39 Q1:  "I was tested for ADHD and they said it was probably anxiety.
