Got told you were dyslexic as a kid, and then nothing else? Now you've got seventeen unfinished projects, you interrupt people, and you can't sit through a movie without your phone.

There might be a second thing going on. I found mine at 32, when a mate pointed at my foot tapping under the table.

In this episode:

• Why ADHD so often hides behind a dyslexia diagnosis
• 10 signs it might be both, from unfinished books to the apology machine
• Kelly the florist who can't stop interrupting, and why she's not being rude
• Sanjay the bus driver with a garage full of hobbies
• What to do with your number, and what changed for me after my second diagnosis

Keep count as you listen. If you get to five or more, it's worth a chat with a GP or psychologist.

Ever wake up and you're already a six out of ten? Nothing's happened yet, and your brain's running hot.

A listener, Nika, asked me to go deeper on the time and stimulation rating from August. So here it is, properly this time.

In this episode:

• How to rate your stimulation out of 10, and why a 6 first thing is a warning sign
• The overwhelm blanket: when you're stuck between the now and the future
• The four boxes, and which one is actually good for planning
• Gus the line painter, who was planning from the wrong box
• What one month sober and skipping meds on high days has shown me
• Quick answer to Nika's other question: 50 leads for a door that didn't exist

I just got back from Singapore. My first proper long haul trip since COVID, and I'd built that plane ride up into a monster in my head.

Spoiler. I was fine. Here's what the trip taught me about burnout, AI and finally finishing stuff.

In this episode:

• Why we build things up in our heads, then turn out absolutely fine
• Why my ADHD brain is at its best in holiday chaos
• Burnout: thriving with too many strings in the air, until you're not
• Why AI is the first tech that gets us from 80% to 100%
• The 3D printed fidget toy Croc charm that Claude designed for our family
