What happens when a major publication questions whether ADHD is even real? I had a lot of thoughts. And I’m sharing all of them in this solo episode.In this episode, I react to the New York Times Magazine article titled “Have We Been Thinking About ADHD All Wrong?” by Paul Tough, and what it got right, what it missed, and why it matters.If you’ve ever felt dismissed or doubted in your ADHD journey, this one’s for you.

I share my lived experience, challenge the oversimplified narrative, and spotlight the real people who rely on support systems that actually work.You’ll hear some frustration, but also some hope.
