The ADHD Doctor: How to Focus, Stop Procrastinating, Manage Your Emotions, & Feel in Control
Mel Robbins gets deeply personal about her ADHD diagnosis at 47, joined by board-certified psychiatrist Dr. Sasha Hamdani. They explore why ADHD is often missed in women and girls, how it's regularly mistaken for anxiety, depression, OCD, burnout, or hormonal issues, and the full range of symptoms beyond attention — emotional dysregulation, sleep disruption, perfectionism, and people-pleasing. Dr. Hamdani provides a four-step action plan, explains what's happening in the ADHD brain, and discusses medication, therapy, coaching, and practical systems that can help.
