Today we talk about one of my favorite topics, ADHD. If you know me, you know that I have suspected since seminary that I have ADHD but I have never gotten a formal diagnosis. Because of this I have learned A LOT about ADHD and talk about it often. Well for this episode I got the chance to talk with someone else who LOVES to talk all things ADHD–Erin Mieskowski. Erin is a queer, neurodivergent pastor, preacher, writer and consultant who got diagnosed with ADHD at age 36. We get to hear Erin’s experience with getting diagnosed with ADHD, their journey with trying to find the best ADHD medication, as well as learn ADHD terms like “hyperfocus” and “hyperfixation”. As you might expect with an episode featuring two people with ADHD this conversation is chatty and fun. We may also rant for a full two minutes about good fidgets.
