Welcome to the I have ADHD podcast where it's all about education, encouragement and

coaching for adults with ADHD. I'm your host Kristen Carter and I have ADHD.

Let's chat about the frustrations, humor, and challenges of adulting, relationships, working, and achieving with this neurodevelopmental disorder.

I'll help you understand your unique brain, unlock your potential, and move from point A to point B.

Hey what's up?

This is Kristen Carter and you're listening to the I have EDD podcast episode number 132.

I am medicated, I am caffeinated, and I am ready to roll you guys.

Hello, hello, hello hello how are you it is so good to be here with you today I

just lost the last week of my life being very very very sick I was in bed for nine straight days nine days you guys I can't

believe how sick I was. You know how a few weeks ago I told you that I just wasn't

feeling well. I was stressed out emotional. There were some things happening in my

life that were giving me a lot of angst and then I was also like, pamassing, all the things, right? Well, my theory is that because of all of that emotional stress, my immune system like totally shut down and then I was super

susceptible to getting sickness and boy did I ever get sick I got so sick So it's been a full 12 days. I am feeling much better. I'm

feeling so much better, although my podcast editor who I adore is going to have to cut out all of the

like dry coughs that I have because you know when you are like done being sick but you

still have that urge to cough and nothing happens it's just

this annoying dry cough yeah I've still got that but I'm so happy to be back with you

here today out of my bed here with you albeit this episode might be a little bit late but at

least it's here and I am ready to party and today is going to be a party. I reached out to my

Instagram followers and I was like listen I do not have a brain I am so so sick I

cannot be trusted to create a podcast episode for this week. So send me all of your funny ADHD stories and oh my gosh this is going to be so much fun. I thought it would be amazing to have like a light-hearted podcast where we just talk about all of the funny things, all of the quirky funny things that we do because of our ADHD guys and we're going to laugh and we're going to joke and we're going to commiserate.

It's going to be a goody.
