In this week's episode, we have a special treat! This is a recording of our weekly peer-to-peer support group calls that we got approval from the participants to turn into a podcast.
In this podcast, we have an open and honest discussion about managing ADHD symptoms and improving mental and physical health.
We explore how ADHD symptoms like impulsiveness, forgetfulness, and distractibility frequently undermine basic self-care routines like sleep, nutrition, exercise, and medication adherence. We share personal struggles and tips for making gradual improvements in these areas.
Other topics include the importance of social connections for mental health, facing fears of rejection, and having new experiences that get you out of your comfort zone. We must learn to start small with sustainable changes, reframing failure as learning experiences, and being patient with ourselves.
Laughing, dancing, improv, and other creative pursuits are recommended to process emotions, build confidence, and practice social skills. We stress the need to stop comparing yourself to others and focus on your progress and self-acceptance.
We also dive into the difficulties of masking and feeling inauthentic in social situations. Often, this excessive masking drains mental energy, and we cover it and much more!

Founder and President of the Men’s ADHD Support Group Marc Almodovar and Shane Thrapp ADHD Coach and Operations Director, have a raw, eye-opening talk about domestic violence against men on today's episode of the Men's ADHD Support Podcast.
Today, we will shed light on the less obvious forms of emotional and mental abuse many men face behind closed doors. We want to discuss how ADHD can make men more vulnerable to entering and staying in toxic relationships.
We will share startling stats on how frequently men endure domestic violence, contrary to popular belief, and discuss the critical first steps men should take to get help if they suspect they're in an unhealthy relationship—like being vulnerable with trusted friends or seeking professional support.
We desire to create a judgment-free space for men to get honest about oft-overlooked abuse dynamics.
Men, you deserve love, respect, and happiness. As Men, we must empower ourselves to walk away from anything less.
