When someone you love receives an autism or ADHD diagnosis, you expect clarity. But what often follows is a tidal wave of opinions, advice, and pressure — from doctors, family members, social media, and even strangers. In this episode, Dr. Theresa Haskins explores the emotional aftermath of a diagnosis, the weight of conflicting information, and the quiet grief that we rarely discuss. With honesty and insight, she reminds listeners that it's okay to pause, question, and trust your own path — even when the world insists it knows better.
Whether you're a parent, educator, or newly diagnosed adult, this episode offers support, validation, and a steady voice amid the noise.
