ADHD for Smart Ass Women with Tracy Otsuka


Oct 23, 2019

In this episode Tracy talks about the myth that “everyone has ADHD.” 

Discover what behavioral characteristics the general population shares with those of us with ADHD. You’ll learn about the following: 

  • What distinguishes adults with ADHD from the general population who display ADHD characteristics?
  • The survey that Russell Barkley and his colleagues Kevin Murphy and MariEllen Fischer conducted that finally put to bed the EVERYONE HAS ADHD myth. 
  • The three different types of ADHD
  • The questions that those of us with ADHD often respond “yes” to
  • The domains of life in which those with ADHD often feel impaired by their symptoms
  • How we often don’t even realize we struggled or we’re struggling until we really reflect back on our experiences.
