Jami speaks with Dr. Joel Lazar, a licensed psychologist with ADHD, to discuss practical tips for managing ADHD as an adult.

The conversation covers how ADHD can manifest in different ways throughout life and how common misconceptions about ADHD, especially in seniors, can lead to misdiagnosis. They also discuss how ADHD was misunderstood in past generations and the importance of positive reinforcement, structure, and creating manageable routines.
