When it comes to ADHD and sexuality, nothing is straightforward. One day it’s a high-speed chase for pleasure, the next it’s a total shutdown. But why? In this episode, we dive into how ADHD affects sexual desire, creating two extremes: hypersexuality, marked by an intense need for stimulation, and hyposexuality, where desire is barely there. We break down why some people with ADHD chase risky sexual behaviors while others struggle with low libido — touching on the role of impulsivity, the search for dopamine highs, and even medication side effects. Whether it’s understanding hyperfocus in the bedroom or navigating intimacy challenges, we’re here to provide real answers and practical advice for couples looking to balance intimacy and ADHD.
