Do your body’s signals arrive gradually, or do hunger, thirst, pain and toilet urgency seem to appear all at once?

In Part 2 of our conversation about ADHD and sensory issues, Adam and Donna explore the physical signals that can be surprisingly difficult to recognise until they become impossible to ignore.

Adam explains why he can go from feeling fine to starving, dehydrated or desperate for the toilet in seconds. Donna questions which experiences could be connected to ADHD and which are simply Adam being Adam.

We also discuss temperature sensitivity, sleeping with a fan throughout the year, different reactions to pain, restless legs, struggling to sit still, imagined smells and the apparently essential ADHD ritual of smelling and rinsing an already-clean glass.

Plus, Adam’s house-project ideas are gathering speed, Donna requests an urgent project meeting and the Five Minute Moan reveals an eyesight problem Adam finds far too entertaining.
