What do you do when you’re on the pathway to a diagnosis and you've already been told you have Bipolar?
Join me as I chat to Rowan Williams from Pooch and Pineapple about her journey with ADHD.
In this podcast we talk about:
- How social media has played a part in our lives in recognising ADHD
- How hormones feel like they’re playing a part in the late diagnosis journey of women as we enter peri menopause
- Rowan’s Bipolar Disorder Diagnosis and how it never quite sat right with her
- The familiar story of GP’s being dismissive when Rowan raised the possibility of ADHD
- How Rowan has been on the NHS waiting list for two and half years and was told there was a 7 year wait!
- Her discovery of the right to choose pathway
- How we need all the information before making a decision
- How Rowan feels about her business and how ADHD has affected that over the years.
- Loving our ADHD hyperfocus!
- Finding your ADH tribe
