Welcome to episode 190 with Philippa Dawson, who is a writer, producer and performer who is also the creator of Character Flaw, a show about her experiences with ADHD and how it’s impacted her throughout her life.
In this episode I chat to Pip about her show, about living with ADHD and how this has impacted her mental health over the years.
We chat about the before and after of diagnosis, her experiences with medication and how different aspects of her identity are wrapped up in her ADHD.
We also about Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria, emotional dysregulation and hyper focus and we chat about dealing with depression, forgetting to eat and going to the Edinburgh Fringe.
It was wonderful to chat to Pip about all of this stuff. Her life and experiences and ADHD all interact in both hilarious and challenging ways and I think a lot of people will relate to that.
