Refocused, Together: Allie Rivera and the Emotion of Laundry
Manage episode 381148474 series 3524157
Allie Rivera found her turning point in a load of laundry. After spending a Saturday afternoon stuck in ADHD paralysis while the very loud and very critical voice in her head insisted she do the laundry, Allie began reading about ADHD and seeing more ADHD content on social media. She received her official diagnosis in 2021.
Today, as an underwriter or on stage as an improv comedian and teacher at the Sea Tea Comedy Theater in Hartford, CT, Allie sat down to talk with us about what it’s like to be diagnosed in your mid-30s, and her experience working with a doctor on a treatment plan.
Refocused, Together is a collection of 31 stories told throughout the 31 days of October, a part of our commitment to ADHD Awareness Month. Make sure to subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts so you don’t miss a single story this month!
