I got the results of my ADHD evaluation today and wanted to share it. The additional diagnosis will affect my content a bit going forward because I’m going to be focusing on both Autism and ADHD—mostly in regard to writing but I’ll probably talk about how it overlaps some of my other interests as well.
I will still be sharing my fiction and nonfiction writing, including book excerpts, creative writing and metaphysical posts.
I was told that I have ADHD with high impulsivity which explains a lot. To me, this was interesting because I felt that autism didn’t really explain everything I’ve been dealing with, particularly in regard to my creative projects. More on this in the video!

🔊UPDATE: I did go ahead and rename the podcast. It’s now Writing On The Spectrum. You can listen on Substack, Spotify or most popular podcast apps. Not sure about the channel art but this is what I have for now 👇 The pic is about three years old. My hair is a little longer and I’m wearing my old glasses, but it’s the only fairly recent pic I have with a microphone.
