    In this episode, Dr. Tish Taylor reflects on Paul Tough’s recent article in The New York Times Magazine titled “Have We Been Thinking About ADHD All Wrong?” With clarity and compassion, she unpacks the key questions raised in the piece—like why ADHD diagnoses and medication use are rising, what we really mean by “ADHD,” and whether it’s neurological, environmental, or something more complex.

    Drawing on her experience conducting thousands of evaluations and supporting families across clinical and school settings, Dr. Taylor discusses how ADHD is currently diagnosed, the significance of executive function development, and the importance of viewing ADHD on a continuum. She also dives into the challenges of diagnosing milder or more situational cases, the impact of co-occurring conditions, and the critical need to look at patterns over time.

    Whether you're a parent, educator, or professional, this episode offers a grounded and thoughtful perspective—reminding us that asking good questions and staying open to new understanding is part of what it means to truly support kids with ADHD.

    Episode 2: ADHD & Co-Occurring Conditions
    2025/04/18
    In this episode, Dr. Tish Taylor explores the many conditions that commonly co-occur with ADHD—and how to tell the difference. From oppositional behaviors and emotional outbursts to anxiety, depression, learning disorders, and even autism spectrum traits, ADHD rarely shows up alone. In fact, only about 20% of individuals diagnosed with ADHD have no additional diagnoses. So what does that mean for understanding symptoms, getting the right support, or seeking a full evaluation? Dr. Tish breaks down:
    • The most common co-occurring diagnoses seen alongside ADHD
    • How overlapping symptoms can make diagnosis confusing
    • Why emotional dysregulation is a key area of concern
    • What to look for when autism and ADHD traits appear together
    • When to consider seeking a comprehensive evaluation
    This episode is full of insight for parents, educators, clinicians, and anyone looking to better understand the complexities of ADHD and its connected conditions. 📬 Have questions or want to connect?
