We're on Patreon! In this illuminating conversation, Mine and Paul sit down with clinical psychologist and UCL researcher Dr. Josh Stott, the lead author behind the recent study that sparked national headlines when it contended that adults diagnosed with ADHD have a reduced life expectancy. Dr. Stott clarifies what the data actually says - and what it absolutely does not say - unpacking the nuances behind diagnosis rates, contributing lifestyle factors, smoking and mental-health risks, gender differences, and why the media’s interpretation missed the mark. The discussion travels widely: from the underdiagnosis of ADHD and autism (especially in women and older adults), to how exclusion and stigma shape later-life health outcomes and the misconceptions around medication. Blending humour with depth, the hosts and Dr. Stott explore the societal, clinical, and personal forces that shape the neurodivergent experience. Hosted on Acast.
