Julie Legg and Jel Legg discuss the link between ADHD and masking - why, when and how we are likely to mask and unmask.
They chat about whether masking is intentional or unintentional, detrimental to our self-esteem, and why they feel it is deemed necessary in certain situations. They discuss how others perceive their masked behaviours, how masking can evoke feelings of being misunderstood, the Iceberg Theory and the times when unmasking has surprised or even shocked those around them.
You'll hear their personal experiences with living with ADHD as adults (after being diagnosed in their fifties) as a married and unmedicated couple. It's an open and honest conversation where over-talking, interrupting and not finishing sentences are alive and well.
