Mental Health in an ADHD Culture with Beth Capecchi

Psychologist Beth Capecchi joins the show. Dr. Beth works with adolescents and adults on a variety of issues, including self-esteem, anxiety, depression, family issues, identity work and relationship issues.

She discusses her journey with ADHD, its impact on her life, and the benefits of understanding your diagnosis. She highlights the importance of self-awareness and developing personal strategies to manage ADHD symptoms over medicating yourself.

Beth also explores the challenges men face in expressing emotions and the role of social media in exacerbating feelings of inadequacy. She emphasizes the value of community and support systems, noting that many people struggle with loneliness and the need for meaningful connections.

Techniques like "Multiple Choice Thinking" and letter writing are recommended for therapeutic benefits.
