| 0:00.0 | Hey, Deservent Listeners. So this episode is Chapter 15 in my deep dive on limerence. |
| 0:08.4 | And in this episode, I'm going to talk about how limerence and autism and ADHD can look |
| 0:16.3 | alike or maybe be the same thing or be related or be risk factors. |
| 0:21.2 | There's a lot of things to talk about. |
| 0:23.5 | The reason why I'm doing this chapter so late after the deep dive, |
| 0:29.2 | it's been a few months, is because after I did the deep dive, |
| 0:32.8 | I received a lot of emails and I recorded two chapters of the deep dive responding to your emails and they |
| 0:39.5 | were really interesting emails. |
| 0:41.8 | And then after I published those, I received even more emails. |
| 0:46.4 | Again, very interesting emails. |
| 0:48.3 | But a lot of the emails were addressing issues I had already covered. |
| 0:52.3 | But a couple emails, for example, from annual patron, |
| 0:57.6 | Jane from Quebec and Anonymous patron, they wrote in about various things, but also |
| 1:05.7 | were asking questions about autism spectrum and ADHD. And I realized that in the deep dive, I never really went |
| 1:13.5 | into it sufficiently. So I thought I would do that in this chapter. I'm guessing this will be |
| 1:19.7 | the final chapter of the deep dive. Who knows? But if you want to hear this episode, you have to |
| 1:25.2 | become a patron. So become a patron. Otherwise, please take care of |
| 1:28.5 | yourself because you deserve it, you really, really do. |
