So this happened this week! This was my reply (of sorts!): 1. Highly heritable: ADHD is one of the most heritable neurodevelopmental conditions and more inheritable than height. Twin studies estimate its heritability to be around 74–80%, meaning that most of the risk for developing ADHD is due to genetic factors. 2. Family risk: First-degree relatives (parents, siblings) of individuals with ADHD are about 4–9 times more likely to have ADHD compared to the general population. 3. Polygenic inherit

Navigating perimenopause when you’re neurodivergent (e.g. ADHD, autism, sensory processing differences) can be uniquely challenging — and often under-recognised. Many women only begin to explore or get diagnosed with neurodivergence during this phase, as the hormonal shifts unmask or exacerbate lifelong traits. For some it can feel catastrophic and a desperate time. 👉🏻Why Perimenopause Hits Differently if You’re Neurodivergent Perimenopause causes fluctuations in oestrogen, progesterone, and o

As a GP I see a lot of patients who are experiencing work related stress. People who are neurodivergent often have great skills but they aren’t often accommodated for or celebrated within the work place which leads to chronic stress and feelings of failure. Recently I did a talk to an organisation explaining the common issues faced. Im not there yet as an employer but we have to start by raising the issue. Please share 🩷 1.
