Ask Dr B – about Best Diets for ADHD & Depression or Anxiety Misdiagnosed As ADHD - 042

Welcome to the forty-second episode of Harness Your ADHD Power, and the nineteenth "Ask Dr B" Show.  

I’m so glad you could join me today!  I’m trying out a different format today and have two great topics for you as well, so let’s get to it!

Last fall I learned how to go live on video; no small feat for sure. I’ve been pretty consistent since then, and June of this year, I was asked to answer questions for groups and so I opted to do Ask Dr B live videos 3x/week and have done so since June of this year. There have been a lot of great questions I’ve been asked and already responded to and thought I’d start sharing that information with you in the Ask Dr B episodes of my podcast show, so you can benefit from what’s already out there but you might have missed; or not watched if you prefer listening to podcasts. So, we’ll see how it goes and if this meets your needs. I’d love it if you’d email me or post reviews so I can know if I am meeting your needs with this different approach for the Thursday Ask Dr B episodes. Thanks so much!

Every WIN you acknowledge and celebrate with emotional authenticity, is changing your neurology, meanings and mindset in a positive way.  The proof is in the posts I read regularly in the program site and the community group.  Seems like a great return on your time investment.

Please don't short-change yourself by thinking that it’s pointless or stupid to reward yourself for things you’re “supposed to do.”  That couldn’t be further from the truth.  Are you really going to wait until something HUGE happens to celebrate?  Does something HUGE happen everyday?  Probably not!  But the kind of WINS I’m talking about do.  And based on the feedback I get from the students in my program, this regular practice of celebrating their WINS is changing their lives.

Today’s episode is all about answering the questions you have about issues or challenges you experience as an adult living with ADHD, and offering you hope. How much time do we have? Not much. So let’s get to it.

Wondering how you can ask me questions? Just click the link in the episode description where it says “Ask Dr B” and ask away. I’ll be notified and get to work on answering your question. You can also Ask Dr B every week when I go live in the community group for Q & A. Love to see you there as well.  Just click here and you can Ask Dr B directly.

If you're feeling overwhelmed and would like to know more about the help you'll receive as a student in the ADDventures in Achievement program, I suggest you put your name on the Waitlist.  Enrollment just closed the end of August and I’m not planning on opening up again until later this year, however that could change. I plan on recording some informative videos for those of you on the Waitlist so you can benefit while you’re waiting for enrollment to open up again. I’m adding some exciting new content to the current program that is well worth the wait! ADDventures in Achievement is definitely the place to be if you want help understanding what’s been holding you back and want to learn the skills to break free of your stuckness.

This podcast show, Harness Your ADHD Power, which currently releases two episodes per week, on Mondays and Thursdays. ADDventures in Achievement, my innovative online coaching and educational program. After 30+ years of working 1:1 with adults with ADHD and hearing from many who wanted to work with me that they couldn’t afford to do so for any meaningful period of time, I worked out a solution. Because the program includes lots of 1:1 work, I limit enrollment to ensure the success of all current students. The Harness Your ADHD Power Community on Facebook. With listeners in many parts of the world, I created a space were we can all come together to exchange ideas, talk about challenges and get answers as well. Please friend me on Facebook and then come and join our community with other like-minded adults making this journey.  Plus, I go live at 5 pm on Mondays in the group to answer your questions.

A Favorite Quote:

There’s an anonymous quote that says, “What is the shortest word in the English language that contains the letters: ABCDEF? Answer: feedback. Don’t forget that feedback is one of the essential elements of good communication.” The question I have for you at this point of our journey together is “Are you willing to give yourself loving and supportive feedback instead of feedback that’s negative and critical of you?” I hope so; it will make a world of difference in your relationships with others and with yourself.
