Amy is best known as the breakout star from BBC’s groundbreaking queer reality show I Kissed a Girl. Today, she brutally opens up about her late ADHD diagnosis, and shares the many realisations she's had along the way.
Chapters:
00:00 Trailer
01:01 A message from our sponsor: Tiimo
03:29 ADHD item reveal
03:53 So, a question that might have some layered answers, but, when was your first memory of feeling different?
06:22 Did your ADHD diagnosis mean a lot to you?
09:15 Is there a high proportion of neurodivergence in the gay community from your experience?
10:05 And did I read somewhere that both of your sisters are gay? Are they both also neurodivergent too?
10:18 What was your parent's response to firstly the collective Neurodivergence?
11:58 How do you think you would have coped through your various iterations of learning that you're "different" without the support of your siblings?
13:56 What is the importance to you of surrounding yourself with your “tribe"
14:57 Have you ever been told you're "too much" for someone, either as a friend, or as a partner, or in the dating world?
16:14 ADHD struggles
17:34 How do you personally deal with heartbreak?
18:45 And how would you describe real love from your own personal emotionally complex ADHD mind's experience?
20:48 ADHD item explanation
21:39 The ADHD agony aunt segment (The washing machine of woes)
24:48 What led you to become part of the Reality TV show "I Kissed A Girl" and why did you choose to do it?
26:57 I don't know how the edit the show, but I imagine things are changed and fabrciated a bit to fulfill a certain narrative. For someone with ADHD and maybe RSD, that's a huge risk to take.
28:12 How has the social media response been and has it impacted you or your family either negatively or positively?
32:09 How does RSD manifest in your and is it something you've had to struggle through your whole life?
33:03 Having spoken to you now, I'd say you're the image of confidence. What insecurities might you have that you think you've done such a great job in masking that nobody would ever guess you think them about yourself?
34:40 The feeling of not fitting in a box must be something quite familiar to you now! What advice would you give to someone who doesn't feel like they are fitting in when they are desperate to?
35:36 What is it about you and your character that has been able to navigate through so many "against the grain" moments in your life and come out the other side so confident and happy?
36:19 What is your life after the show going to be like in terms of the parts you can control (i.e what are you going to do with your new found stardom) and the parts you can't control (i.e being known for a Reality TV show)?
37:45 What is it about being ADHD that you'd miss hugely if you were to suddenly become Neurotypical overnight?

Martine McCutcheon is an actress, best known for her roles in Eastenders & Love Actually, but today she opens up about her late ADHD diagnosis.
Chapters:
00:00 Trailer
01:20 A message from our sponsor: Tiimo
04:39 The ADHD item reveal
05:13 A simple question to start, but an important one, when was your first memory of feeling different?
08:26 Your upbringing in Hackney was tumultuous to say the least. Do you think, from memory, your childhood is linked to your ADHD in any way?
09:27 Why do you think you were diagnosed so late in your life?
21:07 You started performing very early in your life. How was it as a child to be a performer and how did that detract from your academia?
28:15 Many viewers of the podcast will of course recognise you from Eastenders as the iconic character Tiffany.
30:34 What is the pressure like being in the UKs most watched Soap Opera for such a long run?
34:00 It’s quite rare for an actor to be broadcast so consistently to a whole nation and be known so well for that role and it must be very surreal, how did your RSD deal with this particular strain of fame and interactions with the public & press?
37:31 Do you find yourself having been drawn to other neurodivergent minds either personally or professionally?
43:16 Does ADHD affect your ability to learn acting lines
44:46 A huge thing we speak about often on the podcast is imposter syndrome. Have you ever experienced this and did you experience this leaping from a Soap Opera into a Hollywood movie?
49:53 Now you've been diagnosed with ADHD, if you could sit down and have a word with a younger version of Martine just at the moment she's been told she'll be on the country's most beloved Soap Opera, what would you say to her?
56:41 A message from our sponsor: Stasis
58:09 Have you grown to love yourself, feel comfortable in your own skin and everything that entails and did that journey start pre-diagnosis? Or with the diagnosis?
01:05:44 How does your anxiety manifest itself and has this been a struggle in your past?
01:14:27 Reflecting on My Fair Lady
01:20:31 ADHD item explanation
01:22:02 The Washing Machine of Woes
01:24:16 You’ve been away from the public eye for a while, has that been good for you?
01:27:56 In hindsight, do a lot of your behaviours make sense to you now that you have an ADHD diagnosis and if so, which ones?
01:29:50 How would your children describe your ADHD and various neurodivergent eccentricities?
01:31:37 Why was it important to come on here and discuss it today?
01:33:49 If you could sit down and have one conversation with one person from your past, with the fresh perspective of being diagnosed with ADHD, who would it be with and why?

00:42 A message from our sponsor: Tiimo
02:46 Start of interview
03:27 I quite often ask this question at the end but I think it would be a good one to start with:
04:02 Could you explain in detail the general spectrum of ASD, where you place on it and then where Joshy would be placed on it?
05:44 You hear quite regularly things like "oh my friend, he/she is a bit on the spectrum", it seems in some way, we are all on the spectrum. That's why it's a spectrum and not binary. Is this true? Do we all have a bit of an -ism?
07:12 You’ve been diagnosed with ADHD and Autism, when was your first memory of feeling different?
10:08 Do you think you could describe as accurately as best you can what Joshy's experience of the world is?
12:12 How does Joshy show and process his emotions and feelings?
13:11 What is the general communication like between yourself and Joshy and how has that evolved over time
14:00 Did it take time to come to terms with Joshy's diagnosis and if so, what were the stages of processing like for you?
17:22 How have you coped as a father?
19:24 ADHD Item
21:31 Were there any tell-tale signs of Joshy's condition very early in his life and if so, how early?
22:49 A message from our sponsor: Stasis
24:16 How has the world changed with regards to how it views autism since your personal diagnosis?
27:46 Is there a chasm that needs to be addressed with regards to Joshy's experience of the world and how people with his condition are viewed by authorities?
32:21 How would you like the world to change over the next 10 years with regards to ADHD and Autism?
34:14 What Autism associated stigma would you most like to debunk?
36:13 What nonverbal autistic stigma would you most like to debunk?

10:36 What was your first memory of being made to feel different by somebody else?
Do you have any visual analogies that best demonstrate how ADHD manifests in you?

24:11 Drugs and alcohol
25:53 So with great success always comes great criticism. Managing so many different careers, do you suffer RSD across those pursuits?

00:00 Trailer
03:04 Shall we start by explaining in brief your diagnoses and where they came throughout your life?
07:52 What were the various iterations of masking throughout your childhood?
10:51 What are the hidden costs of masking
16:06 When was the last time you felt truly 100% unmasked and this made you feel uncomfortable to feel like you're being yourself?
23:59 When was the last time you felt truly 100% unmasked and this made you feel incredibly liberated and accepted?
27:12 From your experience, what toll does the feeling of being misunderstood take on a person at the time it's happening, and in hindsight what toll do you think it can play on a person when they reach adulthood?
31:14 We’ve had a few guests on with AuDHD and one of the most illustrative of analogies is "it's like 2 siblings dragging each other across the room by their hair". How would you describe these two sectors of the brain colliding on a day-to-day basis?
35:46 Last time you were on you described a sort of 6 month pendulum swing of depression that would then swing to optimism and ambition. You haven't been on here for around a year, so I was just wondering if this has cropped up again in your life and how?
39:48 ADHD item
42:24 The washing machine of woes
48:19 Does having ADHD and Autism make you more tolerant of other people who exhibit what might be frustrating symptoms of ADHD and Autism in your personal or professional life?
51:04 You’ve built a fantastic community online lending support to neurodivergents, from those who have reached out, do you see any common themes in the turmoils of those who are feeling lost?
53:23 Have you made any steps over the last year to manage your R.S.D and has it cropped up in your life since you were last on?
58:23 For someone who has said they take things literally and can maybe be more blunt than people are used to, this must cause confusions in conversations and friendships, how does your RSD deal with these confusions?
01:04:07 Why are boundaries important to a person?
01:11:16 At the beginning of your Ted Talk, you listed contradictions of social dynamics that you had trouble balancing. Could you mention a couple of them now?
01:13:18 You then go on to say other neurotypical people just seemed to have a metaphorical rulebook which helped them understand these things that you couldn't get to grips with, did this lead to resentment of being different? Having to work so hard to understand something others know intrinsically?

02:48 When was your earliest memory of feeling different?
10:30 You were diagnosed at 47? Why did it take so long for you to receive a diagnosis?
14:28 What clicked into place when you heard the words "You have ADHD"?
26:44 You have a great analogy about Tarzan and ADHD, can you explain this for our audience?
33:05 Being diagnosed with ADHD and being a comedian - the creative comedy mind of which is constantly flipping from thought to thought (and I'm sure the two go hand in hand) - but how did this fluid nature of the way the brain works serve in holding down jobs & relationships?
47:52 Moving around a lot when you were younger, changing country, feeling "foreign", facing racism, having ADHD, being shy, that's a lot to deal with for someone who is likely to be emotionally sensitive? What do you think the most testing part of your life has been as far as RSD is concerned?
53:21 What did/do your parents think about ADHD and everything that it entails?

01:17:41 Where would you be in life without your sense of humour and what purpose does your sense of humour serve in softening the blow of everything we've spoken about already!
01:19:35 A wedding day story
01:23:14 Being very much an outsider through Neurodivergent means and, back when you came to the UK, feeling like an outsider through race too, do you have an explanation in a nutshell that might best describe how ostracised a person would feel, and did feel, in that scenario?
01:27:04 Most impulsive thing
01:31:37 Closing questions & signing the ‘thinks outside the box’ canvas
