Episode Details

Hello and welcome back to The ADHD Skills Lab!

Producer Sarah here, diving deep into an apparently contentious topic: Attachment Styles and ADHD!

In 2024, we understand that ADHD can impact relationships and communication, but when did attachment styles enter the chat?

Curious about what we'll cover?

• Attachment Theory Defined - Then and now
• ADHD Subtype correlation 
• What's the correlation between trauma & attachment style?
• Aren't these things incompatible with the neurodiversity paradigm?! Does someone want to do this study?

BONUS: personal discussion of our own attachment styles! Come chat about it on Threads.

Thanks for being here! Until next time,
~ Sarah (Podcast Producer)
