Validation (ADHD is Real)

Join Vivian XYZ Tan and i as we discuss ADHD, Bubble Tea and Anxiety and Depression that i believe is a manifestation of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - Specifically inattentive. I believe many people suffer quietly and anonymously with this surprising self-esteem stealer.

Also, since you are not able to pay attention as well as the next, modern society finds this unacceptable. Well to coin a phrase from the TEDx video below. Most people suffer from Pro-uniformity Disorder. Or PUD. ADHD, I believe is a distant cousin of autism.

But as the video explains people with ADHD have a higher rate of suicide then most and their families

I am sticking to a notion that there is still a stigma and misunderstanding of ADHD and other mental health diseases and if you care be patient with us..

I know most people can not understand this. I am sorry for these people. But i am me and successfull as well. This podcast covers many mental illnesses. But how many anxiety and depression comes from ADHD. I think it is a key to getting over it. I figured this out to late . I am 62 and introverted because of my constant rejection. "I trade my Joy for my Protection". NF has ADHD i am almost sure. My personal only support system is from my friend Joan. Everyone else wants me to be something or anything else. But, i am done with that.


I also have dyslexia so i can not read well. I also have OCD. NF says to show people that are as sick as he. I am. Anxiety and Depression follows when you try to adapt to a world you dont belong in. But let the PUDs know, we are here to stay. My children love me , but if you do please listen to this, but is it  enough to read or listen to these stories. I am sorry about that.

I dedicate this podcast to my friend Joan who has similiar problems. I can not act like a normal pud anymore. I am BOB and i hope you listen to my podcasts in the future.

Profile picture for Robert Adleman

Robert Adleman

I am a 64-year-old male with ADHD, OCD, severe depression, severe  anxiety, and dyslexia. I struggled for 40 years working in the high-pressured Information technology field. Even though it was good money, I didn't have much luck in the financial department.
In 1991, at the age of 33, was when the severe anxiety attack occurred, and the support system was not there to handle it. So, I checked myself in to a mental hospital in Piscataway, NJ. That started my long road to recovery. After the attack, I was severely depressed and anxious for 6 months. This experience is detailed in episode four "Beating Severe Anxiety/Depression".
