Discovering ADHD: Stories from Backyard Brunch

De: Heidi Faucette
  • Resumen

  • We are GenX sisters, in menopause, and surprise!, newly diagnosed with ADHD. Since we found out about our ADHD during the pandemic, we have spent most weekends sitting in my backyard in Brooklyn, with our champagne brunch, discussing the impact, the reflections, the grief, the stories. Many adults are now finding out they were never diagnosed, so we thought we would bring everyone into our backyard discovery sessions… hoping it will help. We laugh, we cry, we are “stream of consciousness” conversationalists and we hope you enjoy listening to our discovery, and perhaps glean some comfort from it.

Their journey into the world of ADHD began when Heidi's daughter was diagnosed, prompting both to reflect on their own symptoms and struggles, leading to their eventual late diagnoses. They touch upon the challenges of growing up undiagnosed, like difficulty with focus and self-care, and the additional conditions that often accompany ADHD.

    Our reason for this podcast is to support and uplift adult women in recognizing the impact undiagnosed ADHD has had on their lives and to know they are not alone. Discovery and grieving for what life could have been if we had only known and had help can be hard sometimes.
