Listening to KC tell her story about listening to the lecture, not doing homework, and then getting an A on the quiz or test was my highschool life. Unbelievable how many females go undiagnosed because we learn all these coping mechanisms.

52 years old - diagnosed ADHD (inattentive) about 40, then later Anxiety, when Major Depressive Disorder had been diagnosed at the end of college-ish... and everything KC said about school years on - made complete sense. Studying/coping/memorizing - all of it. Again having been diagnosed ADHD, I still have never had a doctor go so in depth with me as hers did understanding all of these things. All of this is one big light bulb going off for me, which makes me incredibly sad and angry because all along felt like I've still failed - like I'm lazy and crazy. Especially entering menopause within the last couple of years everything has been horrible and amped up to 11 with depression, and a general feeling of "what does it matter?" I have sat in a psychiatrist's office telling him my whole thought is "What is the point?" (I think some of that happens to go along for me at least - because I've still never been married, no kids, and not much dating - so the extreme loneliness of being left behind by society's standards - is an entirely different sense of not belonging/isolating - even from friends and family) Seriously- this is the first time in years that I have any hope of being understood or pulling myself up through the depths of despair and confusion. I'll be listening to this again to take actual notes comma but I have gone through a lot of tissues crying/nodding my head at what she said, also, I am so greatful that the host ask asked such thorough, sensitive, direct questions almost like bullet points being added to the presentation. I can't extend my gratitude enough for this.

She describes some of me to a “T”. I’m 70 and wish I had this knowledge decades ago.

I love KC!!!!

This was so enlightening for me! Almost everything KC experienced was true for me too and it all started to make more sense for me. I’m so grateful God brought me to this podcast!

In theory I love the freeing idea of doing things half-assed. But I also have OCD where good enough is not good enough. I don’t know what to do.

Really enjoyed this but i would argue we don't know enough about "female ADHD" to say females are more likely to have inattentive type. I have combined and its pretty severe but i always had an interest in psychology and am trained in all the tests so i paid attention and didnt come off ADHD. School pegged my inattentiveness as giftedness (thank goodness). Everyone assumes i have inattentive, I've even see it mislabeled on my charts but ask anyone who knows me and i tick every box for hyperactive. My husband argued once about the climbing a tree example in the DSM and I asked how many times have we pulled the car over ir interrupted a hike so I can climb a rock or ridge or a tree and he was like oh yeah ok yup you do that, 😂.

Thank you KC Davis, I'm curios, what is the name of the test they did to determine whether you had ADHD?

47 minute video for ADHD... No chapters?!

Whyyyyy the back ground noise

I’m 17 minutes in. We’re you going to talk about how to get things done.

Ahhh , the bliss and the bluff of psychology and all their made up terms. It's call human.
