In this no-holds-barred episode, Matt and Andrew dive deep into the ever-messy world of ADHD social media discourse—where misinformation spreads fast, nuance disappears, and personal opinion often drowns out evidence.
They tackle some of the most hotly debated topics online:
Matt shares why cold-water swimming works for him, Andrew explains the science behind medication and blood pressure, and both highlight the dangers of mistaking a viral reel for validated truth.
This episode is a call to critical thinking, clinical literacy, and self-reflection. It’s not about taking sides—it’s about asking better questions. If you've ever been unsure who to believe online, or if you’ve felt lost in the sea of ADHD content, this one’s for you.
Don’t just ask “Does this resonate with me?”—ask “Where did this come from, and does it stand up to scrutiny?”
Social media may serve as a mirror, but it shouldn’t replace a microscope.
