2: Wait.. What about ADHD labels?

  • Summary

  • When did ADHD become the official title? What was ADHD called in the past? What is the ADHD prevalence worldwide? Do countries use different labels for ADHD? If it was possible, what would you rename ADHD?

    Wait.. what were we doing? Oh yeah! Jenna and Aly discuss the ADHD label. Where it came from, what it is in other countries, and what other labels should be used for ADHD are the main points for this week’s discussion. 

    Aly and Jenna are women that are easily distracted and have a tendency to go on tangents.. The tangents and distractions from this week’s episode include:
    • Interest based nervous system
    • Changing the podcast format
    • Our personal ADHD presentations
    • Getting lost in a thought
    • Is ADHD an American issue?
    • The American healthcare system sucks
    • Pet peeve about “everyone has a little ADHD”
    • Getting frustrated about lost items
