Summary

There's more! In the second part of this two-part episode, Stevie and Tessa discuss changes, improvements, tips, tricks, medication and the greater understanding of herself Tessa has developed since her diagnosis. Obviously every journey is personal, but hopefully there's some thoughts and ideas here if you think ADHD might be affecting you, or you're living with/working with/in love with someone who has it.
