Anything but ADHD
Fresh off an autism diagnosis, Mark sits down with his therapist — and is immediately asked if he's ever been tested for ADHD. His response? An emphatic, visceral, slightly panicked no.
Not those letters. Anything but those letters.
In this episode, Mark unpacks why a word he claims to hate feels so uncomfortably, inarguably, almost insultingly accurate. From the time that folds in on itself, to the four hundred abandoned projects, to the scissors — the scissors that are somewhere in a normal-sized house, and they are winning — he traces the shape of a brain he's spent nearly fifty years apologising for.
But this isn't really about ADHD. It's about shame. About what happens when you've been told your whole life that the way your brain works is just a personality failing — and then someone hands you a diagnosis that says: you were never failing. You were always trying harder than everyone else. That just wasn't the problem.
That, as Mark would say, is a lot to sit with.
Funny, uncomfortably honest, and occasionally derailed by a fact about duck accents — this is the episode for anyone who has ever stood in a kitchen for eleven minutes wondering why they went in.
