Show Notes
Recorded June 2026.
Episode 202 of the podcast covers ADHD and the phenomenon of 'waiting mode', the common freeze response when there is a future event to wait for. Part 1 is the usual 'welcome to the podcast nonsense', in part 2, Alex the Psycho…. education Monkey bores on about the science of ADHD and waiting mode, and in part 3, Alex and James offer their personal reflections on rumination. "What has James lost, forgotten or mislaid this week?" returns with James winning (probably) so far, but we have no idea really... James hates even a little spark of happiness in Alex, Alex remembers inventing ‘symptom stacking’, and Mrs AuDHD is still too ‘clinically tired’ to join in...

Episode 199 of the podcast covers ADHD and neuroplasticity, the lifelong capacity of the brain to change and rewire itself in response to the stimulation of learning and experience. Part 1 is the usual 'welcome to the podcast nonsense', in part 2, Alex the Psycho…. education Monkey tries to communicate poorly written science of ADHD and neuroplasticity, and in part 3, Alex and James offer their personal reflections on rumination. "What has James lost, forgotten or mislaid this week?" returns with James winning 5-1 so far for the series. Alex’s ‘Rapper name’ is FOX-P and James prefers ‘shut up’ to ‘shush’...
Mrs AuDHD is back! Episode 198 of the podcast covers the long-term effects of ADHD. The (for now) revised format sees endless waffle in part 1, in part 2, Alex the Psycho…….education Monkey vomits out the science of long-term ADHD medication use, and in part 3, all three hosts offer their personal reflections. "What has James lost, forgotten or mislaid this week?" returns with James winning 4-1 so far for the series.
