Come with us as we navigate the mind-blowing, cluster f**k that is late-diagnosis ADHD. It’s messy, overwhelming, and sometimes makes no sense… but this is what happens when you give two people with ADHD a microphone and let them spiral.
We’re talking hyperfixations, random obsessions we swear are “the one”, the crashes, the chaos… and all the little moments that make you stop and think “why did I just do that?”
It’s all over the place, it rarely goes how you expect, and half the time it doesn’t make sense… but somehow, it’ll probably sound familiar.
There’s no structure, no perfect advice, and definitely no pretending we’ve got it all figured out. Just honest conversations about what ADHD actually feels like, the good, the bad, and everything in between… said exactly how it happens in our heads.
Because sometimes all it takes is hearing someone else say it out loud to realize you’re not broken… you’re not alone. Your brain just works differently.

Send us Fan MailThis week were talking about ADHD and the symptoms of inattention. It’s easy to glance at the DSM checklist and think, “That’s not me.” But when you really look at how these symptoms show up in everyday life? Suddenly it’s very relatable.We’re breaking down inattentive ADHD in a way that actually makes sense with real-life examples and a few funny (okay, slightly chaotic) relatiable stories of how it shows up for us.

Send us a textThis week, we’re diving into one of the most frustrating ADHD habits: starting a million things… and finishing none of them. We talk about how we can get 90% of the way through something and then completely abandon it, either forever, or until a deadline forces us to panic-finish the last 10% out of fear, shame, and pressure. Why does this happen? Can we do anything to fix this? Let’s unpack the chaos together.Support the showIf you'd like to support the show please consider subscribing to us, it starts at $3 a month:BUZZSPROUT Subscriptionhttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1898728/supporters/newBuy Me A Coffeehttps://bmc.link/adopaminekickThanks so much to anyone that donates to us, we really appreciate it.Our Socialswww.adopaminekick.comFollow us on Instagramwww.instagram.com/adopaminekickLike us on Facebookwww.facebook.com/adopaminekickEmail us: adopaminekick@gmail.com Support the show

Send us a textThis is the million dollar question isn’t it? 😅 You start with the best intentions—maybe even organize everything neatly—but instead of getting shorter, your to-do list somehow keeps growing. It’s like every task you finish magically creates two more. This week, we’re diving into the ADHD struggle with productivity—why starting is hard, finishing is harder, and how even the best-laid plans can turn into chaos. From task paralysis to the never-ending dopamine chase, we’re breaking down why our to-do lists never seem to shrink??
