Are you ADHD, or are you just a mess? (We're both, apparently.) This week we're getting into one of the most important conversations in the ADHD space right now — why social media has made it so hard to know what's real, what's accurate, and what's just the algorithm doing its thing.

We talk about the actual clinical difference between ADHD traits and ADHD impairment, why women are so often missed or misdiagnosed, the very real problem of ADHD baiting on TikTok, why 75% of social media ADHD content isn't clinically accurate, and the uncomfortable truth about when ADHD becomes an excuse rather than an explanation.

Whether you're diagnosed, questioning, or just doom-scrolling content that makes you feel seen — this one's for you.

In this episode:

• What actually separates ADHD from just being a bit forgetful or chaotic
• Why women are diagnosed so much later — and how hormones and masking play into it
• ADHD baiting: what it is and why it's more harmful than you think
• How to consume ADHD content on TikTok without self-diagnosing off a 30-second reel
• The difference between ADHD as an explanation vs. ADHD as an excuse
• Why not replying to that text for a week isn't always just your ADHD

Hold On, What Was I Saying? is the podcast for women with ADHD — honest, unfiltered, and never taking itself too seriously.
