ADHD and Autism Co-Diagnosis: Treatment

Until recently, autism and ADHD were not diagnosed together. Now, it is acknowledged as possible. Both diagnoses are complex individually, so you can imagine how complicated a co-diagnosis is. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, ADHD coach Jeff Copper (https://digcoaching.com) interviews Dr Sarah Cheyette (http://sarahcheyette.com) around her experience helping those with both conditions. The interview promises to be fascinating. Jeff and Dr. Cheyette talk about various symptoms, how they manifest in autism and in ADHD. The question is which way to go about resolving the symptoms and working with the individual. Intervention for those with a dual diagnosis is a new territory. We are excited about getting a dialogue going and sharing insights. If you are curious, listen to the interview.

ADHD: Managing the Demons in Difficult Times

Gregg Krech of The ToDo Institute (www.todoinstitute.org) writes, “Our sensory experience, more than ever before, is primarily with touch screens, computer keyboards, and viewing digital pixelated images. This nearly invisible virus brings with it an army of truly invisible demons which include depression, anxiety, fear, loneliness, boredom, anger, sadness and more.” In  this interview ADHD coach Jeff Copper (www.digcoaching.com) interviews Gregg around his knowledge of Japanese psychology and the development of attention skills to be with things that are uncomfortable as a means for you to “be” in a more healthful way. If you have ADHD and struggle with demons as described, tune in. Gregg shares valuable insights that you will find useful.

By Jeff Copper, MBA, PCC, PCAC, CPCC, ACG – March 26, 2020

I’m grateful to EV for agreeing to let me share her unique logic. It matters little if it makes sense to you. What matters is it works for her.
