Undiagnosed ADHD, at best, can be a life-long nuisance and energy-sapper, but at worst, it can trigger the worst of mental health issues, including suicide ideation.

Unfortunately, this week's guest, Priyanka Patel, a pharmacist and who was diagnosed with ADHD at 27, knows this all too well.

She was diagnosed with depression in 2020 and, despite her efforts to try and get an ADHD assessment, was not listened to by her GP. Priyanka was then put on a variety of medications, which led to a significant decline in her mental health.

Since finally getting her ADHD diagnosis, Priyanka's life has transformed, and now she is on a mission to ensure no other woman has to go through what she did.

During this week's episode, Kate and Priyanka talk about:

• Priyanka's mental health and diagnosis story
• How Priyanka's family dealt with her diagnosis
• Focussing on all our negatives instead of our strengths
• The stigma of mental health, ADHD and medication in Indian culture
• How to approach medication for your situation
• Cultural views of neurodiversity
• How ADHD Medication works in your system
• Tips to help feel better while taking medication
• Subtle ways our ADHD symptoms creep up
• Accommodations we can choose to help ourselves
• Priyanka's work to improve NHS GPs' knowledge of ADHD symptoms in women
• Increasing awareness and screening of ADHD in GPs

Kate's new four-part workshop series, Regulating Your ADHD Nervous System, is available here.

Perfectionism combined with ambition, control, over-achievement, restless energy, productivity-guilt and burnout are tendencies I see and hear about a lot in ADHD women. It can be exhausting living like this, and many of us struggle to break the cycle, which causes spates of burnout. However, when we create awareness around these behaviour patterns, which are often subconscious and unintentional, we can build better boundaries and gently remove the internal pressures we put on ourselves.

Today on the ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast, I speak to Michaela Thomas,  a Clinical Psychologist, coach, founder of the psychology practice The Thomas Connection and author of The Lasting Connection – develop love and compassion for yourself and your partner.

Michaela specialises in perfectionism combined with stress, anxiety, depression, productivity, procrastination, burnout and overall wellbeing.

On today's ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast, Kate and Michaela talked about the following:

• Burnout, ambition, overwhelm and not feeling good enough with neurodivergent women
• Productivity, procrastination and shame
• Perfectionism is a mask we use to hide
• Understanding the wiring of our neurodivergent brain
• The tools and strategies to help with hyperfocus and burnout
• Choosing different ways to live and what's important to us in different seasons
• Self-boundaries, self-compassion and seeing our limitations
• Softening a 'should' to a 'could, removing self-blame
• Being overwhelmed by all our ideas, pulling the reigns back
• Celebrating our impulsive energy and creative imagination
• Harnessing our energy with regular breaks and self-compassion
• Cycle breaking from previous generations
• The pressure we put on ourselves and using our intuition
