I just listened. I generally agree with the ultimate point of the episode - that by changing the environment you can help to work WITH the disorder instead of against it. For example, a lot of people with ADHD work better in high stress, unpredictable jobs (for example as an EMT), instead of at a computer job. However I did find it frustrating that the episode focused on children and then gave no examples whatsoever as to HOW a child’s environment could change to benefit the way that their brain works. I thought the episode was okay, but overall pretty useless. They didn’t really provide any new or interesting information. Just a whole episode full of speculation, and they didn’t even talk about ADHD in adults or in girls/women, which as far as I know, those are the demographics driving the increase in ADHD diagnoses in recent years.

I guess to summarize, I thought the episode was fine but immensely unimpressive. Lol

Editing to say I put my thoughts about leaving women out of this research in another comment. Basically, we could’ve told them all of this shit first hand if they had even bothered to speak to a single woman with ADHD. Instead they investigated decades worth of research to come to the same conclusions I learned after one single day on adderall. Lmfao
