About this episode

Welcome back to Mental Status!

Today, we're diving into the unique journey of studying and practicing psychology with ADHD. Drawing from lived experience, Josh opens up about some of the challenges he's faced and others may face in managing ADHD through the journey of becoming a Psychologist. He shares what his challenges have looked like, and the strategies he has employed - in both academia and professional practice.

From the rigors of studying psychology, to navigating the complexities of working in the field, Josh sheds light on the multifaceted nature of this process. We discuss the hurdles he's encountered in maintaining focus, managing time and meeting deadlines to achieve goals.

But it's not all about the challenges. Josh also shares the personal insights he's gained and the coping strategies he has drawn upon, hoping it may help current psychology students and professionals navigate similar paths.
