Is it ADHD or Am I Just an Emotional Wreck? | ADHD or Life – A Couple’s Perspective Podcast

Ever wondered if your quick mood swings, teary moments, or emotional outbursts are ADHD, or just part of being an “emotional wreck”? In this week’s episode, Adam and Donna get real about feelings, triggers, and all the chaos that comes with them—ADHD style.
We kick off with the age-old debate: who’s the most emotional—Adam or Donna? (Spoiler: it’s a close call!) 
From leg-rubbing struggles in the studio to the joys of our new half-hour format (let us know what you think—unless it’s negative, thanks to RSD!), we’re sharing all the behind-the-scenes laughs.

Hear about:
Why ordering kilts a size too small is a real mood-changer
The ongoing love affair with our fancy new screen
How we handle relationship moods (spoiler: we don’t argue, but the vibes definitely drop)
The domino effect—when one of us gets moody, the other follows
Reading each other’s faces and those split-second emotional reactions (is this one of Adam’s ADHD triggers?)
Can you really stop, reflect, and not get emotional? (We try…)
The power of breathing, naps, and morning coffee as Adam’s favorite olive branch
FOMO, drama queen moments, and the eternal question: talk it out, or roll over and make up?
Why communication is everything—even when there’s no spaghetti for tea!

Donna’s a self-confessed bunny hopper on the back of Adam’s emotional dysregulation, and we’re not afraid to ask: should the title have been “Is it ADHD or Am I a Drama Queen?”

Plus, in our Five Minute Moan, Adam’s hoping the dish fairy (aka Donna) will clear up, and Donna’s setting the record straight about who’s really in charge.

Listener stories this week get into finding joy in chaos, the power of planners, and what happens when you say “yes” to everything.
