ADHD, autism, and the pressure to be “man enough” (Shane Thrapp’s story)
Shane Thrapp always felt different. As an adult, he found out he has both ADHD and autism — two parts of his brain that sometimes work against each other.
In this episode, Shane shares the weight of masking his symptoms and how society’s ideas about “real men” can make it even harder to speak up. Today, Shane is helping other men with ADHD as the Operations Director of the “Men’s ADHD Support Group.” He’s on a mission to show that being yourself shows more strength than pretending to be someone you’re not.
