As usual, Alex the Psycho-education Monkey delivers the "science" behind the subject, personal reflections on this theory are delivered by all three ADHD adults and lets face it, even we can't pretend that the 'top tips' this week are in any way useful 'What has James lost, forgotten or mislaid this week?" continues and the usual correspondence, chaos and nonsense are included. James goes for a poo, Mrs ADHD is a Neanderthal and Alex attempts a Brummie accent AGAIN... Written by James Brown, Alex Conner and Sam Brown. Produced by James Brown and JBHD Ltd.

Episode 76 ADHD and seasonal affective disorder (S.A.D.)
Episode 76 sees the ADHD Adults discuss something they are apparently utterly unqualified to cover, ADHD and seasonal affective disorder. As usual, Alex the Psycho-education Monkey delivers the evidence behind the link between the two, an utter lack of personal reflections from all three ADHD adults is starkly apparent and some 'top tips' on managing S.A.D. maybe retrieve a tiny bit of respectability. 'What has James lost, forgotten or mislaid this week?" continues with a new annual score so Alex will Alex finally be winning? The usual correspondence, f-bombs and nonsense are included.

Taking inspiration from many sources in the media, such as the Adrian Chiles Guardian article on his own ADHD life as well as getting information and support from the ADHD Adults themselves.
