What if your experiences of rejection sensitivity, attachment insecurity in relationships, limerence, burnout, imposter syndrome, and extreme executive dysfunction were never fully because of your ADHD, but were more so the result of countless moments of rejection and wounding from a society that never understood you?
This episode covers the impact of being a woman with ADHD in a neurotypical world that is often at odds with your own neurochemistry. While ADHD is already penalized in a society that is increasingly corporate, boxed-in, and productivity-focused, being a woman with ADHD creates a unique intersectionality that can leave you up against an even more punishing environment—one where the oxygen you breathe is the air of criticism.
In this episode, Dr. Jacob Ambrose and Dr. Vincent Barbieri cover the impact of being a woman with ADHD in a neurotypical society that often punishes women with ADHD for their greatest gifts. Mental health risk factors are covered, along with the impact of being a woman with ADHD at work, in friendships, and finally, in the arena of dating.
