Did you know that men are 3x more likely than women to be diagnosed with ADHD? ADHD, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, is a type of neurodivergence with symptoms that can include restlessness, trouble concentrating, and sensory issues. It can can have huge implications for your life, work, and mental health, but quite often it’s missed until people notice it themselves, and advocate for it with their GPS. It’s also something we’re seeing more of on TikTok, which is making some people worry that it’s being glamourised and turned into a bandwagon. But with diagnosis so hard to come by, especially in the UK, maybe there’s some value in self-diagnosis? Gemma Styles recently opened up about her experience with being diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, and we’re so pleased she’s joining us today to talk us through the process of being diagnosed, what this meant for her mental health/self-love, and how she’s adjusted to her diagnosis. 🧠If you think you might have ADHD, here are some resources to check out: ADHD UK - https://adhduk.co.uk Adult ADHD Self-Screening Tool: https://adhduk.co.uk/adult-adhd-screening-survey/ Diagnosis pathways for ADHD (UK) - https://adhduk.co.uk/diagnosis-pathways/ Videos about ADHD - https://adhduk.co.uk/videos/ ADHD and Mental Health - https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/tips-for-everyday-living/adhd-and-mental-health/ ADHD Common Questions and Answers - https://www.adhdawarenessmonth.org/category/q-a/ ADHD Support Groups - https://www.ukadhd.com/support-groups.htm Virtual Body Doubling - https://www.flow.club Today's Sponsors: 💦 If you'd like to try ROAM, head to exploreroam.com and use code LOVE for 20% off site wide 🧠 If you'd to try BetterHelp, head to betterhelp.com/GOLOVE, where you can get 10% off your first month. 🎥If you'd like to watch this episode, we're on YouTube: youtube.com/@goloveyourselfpod 🙏 You can support us on Patreon for £1 a week to get ad free and early episodes: https://www.patreon.com/goloveyourself 🙏 Or support us on Apple Podcasts for £1 a week to get ad free and early episodes: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast... 📧 If you'd like to contact us, you can email: [email protected] 📷 Or follow us on Instagram: @goloveyourselfpod ❤️ Join our Facebook group to connect with other listeners: https://www.facebook.com/groups/51272...
