I'm ADHD! No You're Not

We’re back for Season 6!

This week, as we kick off ADHD Awareness Month, we’re joined by Bradley Riches to talk about overcoming mutism, finding his voice and learning to communicate in his own way.

We discuss Bradley’s experiences growing up autistic, his acting career, acceptance, and why there isn’t one “right” way to communicate.

Bradley also shares his thoughts on normalising different neurospicy communication styles and making space for people to express themselves in ways that work for them.

For our landmark 60th episode, we’re joined by the brilliantly candid Sarina and Roger Taylor. In this, Roger Taylor’s first-ever podcast appearance, they open up about late ADHD diagnosis, the realities of masking, and the practical strategies that help them navigate daily life, from medication and mindfulness to lists, routines, and even Sarina’s famous “beans” system.
We explore the emotional side of late diagnosis, the importance of support and self-acceptance, and how neurodivergence can shape both struggle and strength. It’s an intimate, high-profile, and very special conversation with plenty of laughs, heartfelt moments, and a few surprises along the way.

This wek, we’re joined by the wonderfully insightful Dr Nighat Arif for a wide-ranging conversation about women’s health, ADHD, perimenopause, medical misinformation and the realities of navigating the NHS. We cover brain fog and hormone shifts to the dangers of TikTok health myths and the importance of being believed by your doctor.
We also dig into the overlap between ADHD, dyslexia and hormonal change, why women’s symptoms are so often missed or misread, and how to advocate for yourself in a 10-minute GP appointment. Along the way, there are laughs, honest reflections and plenty of myth-busting from one of the UK’s most trusted medical voices.

From school struggles and hyperactivity to fame, addiction, sobriety, and the search for understanding, John speaks with honesty, warmth, and plenty of laughs about what it really means to live with ADHD.
