Happy Holiday Break, darlings! This week Katie & Garet are bringing you another sweet sweet Patreon preview of our Dysfunction Junction bonus episodes.

2022/12/22

Frohe Krampusnacht, Anklets! This week Garet took us down a goat themed, sacky rabbit hole of skin tags, craisins, cursed pickles, and Harvey Weinstein's flappy doodles. The history of Krampus dates back to a billion years ago, which is basically how anything sounds that happened before 1500CE to our dumb American brains. So make sure to be nice this year….or naughty if you're into Christmas demons and getting spanked with a bundle of sticks. Join our Patreon and share us with EVERYONE you know so

In honor of the food-est day of the American calendar next week, we're covering ADHD & food today! Do you ever struggle with constantly craving carb-heavy foods? Turns out, yet again, it's all your brain's fault! We do our best to steer clear of eating disorder discussions but there is some talk this week of food and exercise extremes so if that's too much for you, we totally understand. In addition to our history of giving knives to tortellini, we also weaponize vegetables in this episode. Pretty

Welcome back to the ADHD gravy train! This week, Garet & Katie recorded on a morning when they were both extremely exhausted somehow but they still take you down the rabbit hole that is HYPERFIXATIONS! A rarely studied, often just anecdotally reported, ADHD symptom that is sometimes also called "hyperfocus." Don't be fooled, though! Hyperfixation and hyperfocus are actually two different things, and either way, we manage to squeak out some tips to snap out of it so you remember to eat and drink

We're taking a break from our regularly scheduled ADHD programming to take a side quest and delve into the History of Tarot for a special spooky season treat! Katie leads the discussion this time but don't worry because Garet brings the Big Deck Energy, too. The history of this Italian card game played at bougie cocktail parties that transformed into an occult practice and turned into something involving rogue tentacles maybe?

We're about halfway through October and finally tackling the topic you've all been asking for - Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria.

Have you ever said "I don't need to write that down, I'll remember it!" and you knew that was a lie? Samesies! This week we discuss poor planning - what causes it, why does it happen, and how can our little ADHD brains cope with those situations where we're forced to plan something way far in advance. The Mad Hatter takes over and we have a real big beef with the dreaded 5 Year Plan that our college programs forced us to formulate before we were diagnosed. Building on topics discussed in our

2022/09/29

It's our last episode of September and this week Katie is presenting us with ALL the details on coping with stress when you have ADHD. Katie was personally victimized by this episode but the good news is that we did discover a solution to the "ADHD and Pooping Your Pants" issue, thanks to one of the least likely of sources - Lisa Rinna! It's our last episode before October and Spoopy Season officially starts but that won't stop us from talking about cursed maracas full of loose bone bits. Be sure to

Welcome to our hyperactivity episode! We shout-out Weird Al Yankovic and Elyse Myers with some more sweet sweet song re-writes from Katie and we explore the different ways "hyperactivity" manifests itself in our lives as ladies who weren't diagnosed with ADHD until we were very very old. As a gentle preview of a future episode, we also lightly explore the effect that regular monthly hormonal changes both increase the severity of our ADHD symptoms and reduce the efficacy of our medications.

Welcome to Episode 5! This week we are discussing impulsivity in ADHD - why it happens, how we cope with it, how we don't cope with it, and how it turns out that Katie is actually just a generalized train enthusiast who is occasionally made of bees.

Welcome to Episode 4 where Garet tells us all about her deepest insecurity when it comes to ADHD - emotional disregulation!

Don't worry, because you'll get a vibrant reminder of oceanic noises in this episode. And to any neurologists who listen, Garet would like to remind you that she is a tenderoni and

This is our first official content episode, as Garet likes to say! Today we are discussing multitasking and focus issues associated with ADHD. One of us is described as the human embodiment of "jazz hands" and the other one is just "raw-dogging this diagnosis." Sorry, Mom! It wasn't our fault, it was Satan trying to distract us!

2022/09/01

In this edition of TBIAH Katie did the research and we're discussing disorganization and ADHD - but if we're being honest, lots of these tips are relevant to everyone, not just those of us with other-functioning brains. In this episode we discuss how Garet might be a low key psychopath and where the climax of Sleepless in Seattle takes place. Don't worry about Katie diving head first into every opportunity - Garet is always on hand to explain what happened to the EMTs. Make sure you like and
