I want you to take a counter-cultural perspective, or at least be open-minded, to be thinking counter-culturally and perceiving your quote-unquote disorder as something kind of a strength.

In this episode of 'Magnified Grace', Manny tackles these tough topics head-on, sharing his personal journey with undiagnosed ADHD and addiction.

But Manny goes beyond just the medical facts. He opens up about his own experiences with impulsivity and forgetfulness, painting a vivid picture of the challenges and strengths that come with ADHD.

The episode also dives into the tricky territory of self-medication, exploring how many people with ADHD turn to substances like Adderall. Manny shares his thoughts on the importance of discipline when taking medication and the fine line between use and abuse. His candid discussion on childhood experiences and the long-term effects of Adderall offers valuable insights for anyone navigating similar struggles.
Whether you're dealing with ADHD, addiction, or just curious about these issues, Manny's heartfelt conversation provides a wealth of perspectives. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding and maybe even find some solace in knowing you're not alone.
