Adult ADHD, OCD & Anxiety Explained š§ ft. Dr. Daniel Amen
Why are so many women not diagnosed with ADHD until adulthood? How do you know if it's ADHD, anxiety, hormones, generational trauma or just pregnancy brain? And if you do have ADHD, what should treatment actually feel like? This week on I'm Fun Now, Sazan sits down with world-renowned psychiatrist and brain health expert Dr. Daniel Amen for one of the most requested conversations yet. After recently receiving her own ADHD diagnosis as an adult, Sazan brings Amen the questions so many women have been asking and rarely hear answered. Together, they discuss: Why ADHD is often overlookedĀ Why motherhood and pregnancy can make symptoms more noticeable ADHD vs. anxiety, OCD, generational trauma and pregnancy brain What untreated ADHD can look like over time How to understand your ADHD type (even without a SPECT scan) What the right ADHD treatment should actually feel like Brain supplements, medication, and common misconceptions Faith, mental health, and removing the shame around getting help They also answer listener questions on anxiety, OCD, medication, and women's mental health and Dr. Amen shares his professional perspective on why relying on ChatGPT for mental health advice has real limitations. Whether you've been diagnosed, suspect you have ADHD, are pregnant, nursing, or simply trying to understand your brain better, this conversation offers practical guidance, hope, and the reminder that you're not broken ā you may finally have an explanation.
