There's something in the air and we're feeling it too - the pressure to get that Spring Cleaning Itch scratched. It's a lot of pressure - the stores are FULL of cleaning and organizing supplies, aids, tricks, hacks, EVERYTHING. Yet -- we have ADHD so do those really work for us? Today we talk about how to engage in spring cleaning when you're neurodivergent so you don't get burnt out, overwhelmed, or trapped by ADHD paralysis. What's your favorite ADHD cleaning tip?

As promised, we're back to discuss requesting reasonable accommodations for your ADHD at work. It's a topic that we can talk ourselves out of "deserving" but the fact of the matter is - RAs don't have to be permanent and they don't have to be something you even use every day! This week's episode discusses the statutory framework for the Americans with Disabilities Act and its amendments - but make sure you check with your own state's disability support office to ensure you're getting access to all the services you're entitled to and always always always - when it doubt, check with an employment law attorney. To our international listeners, we hope this episode will help you get ideas on how to navigate the systems in place in your own countries but ultimately - Katie could not handle researching the laws in other countries given her attempt to understand the EU's VAT system.

Everyone is talking about it and SO. ARE. WE. As part of our new regular show-and-tell of our hyperfixations, this month Katie is teaching Garet allllll about the British Royal Family and asks the question that is currently dominating the internet: Where is Kate? Where's Kate Middleton a/k/a Her Royal Highness, Catherine, Princess of Wales. She hasn't been seen in public since Christmas Day, 2023, and since then, we have a royal motorcade heading to a hospital on December 28, 2023, an announcement of some sort of "planned abdominal surgery" that also required cancellation of every Kate appearance scheduled through Easter 2024 that occurred on January 14, and most recently - the photoshop fiasco heard 'round the world on March 10th, we're finally starting to genuinely doubt the safety and security of the Princess of Wales. The first woman to hold the title since the divorce of Lady Diana Spencer and then-Prince Charles (now King Charles) - is the title cursed? Is the engagement ring Kate wore that famously belonged to her dearly departed mother-in-law cursed? Well, it's not featured in that notorious Mothering Sunday photo, that's for damn sure. Tune in to catch up on theories, hear our conclusions, and tell us your own theories in our Instagram post for today's episode!

Born from a group chat conversation that was overflowing with suggestions, Garet brings us this week's relaxed fit episode with a riveting game of "would you rather - ADHD edition!" We discuss things like waiting in line, being in loud crowds, tight clothes, wet clothes, and the real plague on society these days - The Trader Joes Parking Lot.

This week we take a deep dive into how our ADHD has affected our own self-image throughout our lives - both pre- and post-diagnosis! And since we just can't help ourselves, we talk about how our body image changes during and after pregnancy and how having ADHD and already being prone to comparing our own success and progress to our peers is a constant battle with ourselves and with the media we consume every day. So if you struggle with your body image and have ADHD - this episode is for you!

It's almost Valentine's Day - and let's be honest, dating with ADHD is a fraught mine field of obstacles, rejection sensitivity, and awkwardness. Katie took over the research this week and the ladies discuss dating with ADHD - and jumping off our attachment theory episodes, it's a perfect time to examine how we dated before we were diagnosed with ADHD and things we would do differently now.

We are concluding our discussion on Attachment Theory today - sort of. Because this is a topic that Garet could research forever and ever, but while we chose to cut this off and give an overview, Katie also shares a tale of how she made the most wildly unhinged off-the-cuff comment to her optometry technician and her recent eye exam that will make you question everything you know about telehealth appointments.

This week we are here and we're ready to RAGE. Katie takes the reigns on research and discusses Oppositional Defiant Disorder - a diagnosis that is in the DSM V - but should it be? We go in depth on this topic and the alleged overlap with ADHD that splits hairs and makes distinctions that we can't really see even if we squint really hard. One thing is for sure - the children with occupational defiance disorder yearn for the mines!We've got a big update to our Patreon - there's just one tier - ANKLETS - who get ad-free extended cut episodes, video episodes, on-air shout outs, and added to our close friends list on Instagram - so sign up now at www.patreon.com/thebarisanklehigh.

We're doing what everyone else does in early January - we're circling back to that thing we talked about in mid-December...but instead of your boss asking you for an update on that project, it's Garet telling us the nitty gritty bullshit tornado that is Postpartum Anxiety (a/k/a PPA). We hear a lot of anecdotes from Garet about her own journey with anxiety both pre-pregnancy, peri-partum-ally, and postpartum.

We've been teasing this topic for a LONG time and now, Katie is finally telling us all about microdosing PCP and magic mushrooms. So drop some acid and crank up your headphones to get the lowdown on this trendy practice of takeing sub-psychosis doses of mind-altering substances. Some folks claim microdosing has helped cure their depression, severe PTSD, ADHD, extreme anxiety and other phobias - but what does the science say? Listen to this episode to find out the benefits, pitfalls, and historical basis of this on-trend practice.

Happy New Years! As an ADHDer, do you struggle with New Years' Resolutions? Whether it's picking a resolution to commit to, actually committing to the resolution you picked, or getting caught up in the excitement of other peoples' resolutions and overwhelming yourself with too many projects - we thought it was time we discuss tips for setting a great New Years Resolution if you're neurodivergent. Garet is pumping during this episode again so we apologize if you hear her machine going at it in the background but we do get an update on her current outputs during this episode in case you were wondering about that for some weird reason. (Don't be a pervert about it!) We pick our own theme for the year - and be sure to tune in next week to hear what our theme for the year for the podcast is - because of course we forgot about that until we were through recording a totally different episode. #ADHDwho?

Happy Winter Solstice!! This year, instead of Garet being dressed like Krampus, Katie took over the research and teaches us all about the Newgrange Druid World Heritage Site, Mari Lwyd (pronounced Mah-ree Lloyd) a Welsh tradition that is like Krampus but involves more horse skulls than we're comfortable with. Katie also tells Garet about the famous Feast of the Ass which neither of us have heard of but is apparently a real thing...allegedly. Remember - the days start getting longer as of RIGHT NOW! The end is in sight! Enjoy your twinkly lights and do something today to connect with nature and ground yourself - and maybe dress up like a ghost horse and terrorize your neighbors until they bribe you with booze and food - because The Bar is Ankle High.

Today we continue our discussion on the 4th Trimester, postpartum depression (PPD) and postpartum anxiety and we actually get into the factual discussions for each of these conditions and what separates them from just "the baby blues." As usual, we get distracted by ourselves and promote Garet's baby to the Owner of Poop Acre Manor - a title that we're pretty sure she's earned at this point because damn that kid can let it fly when she wants to!
Reminder - all patreon subscribers are still getting ad-free episodes no matter what tier you are so sign up at now at www.patreon.com/thebarisanklehigh and make sure you're following us on Instagram @thebarisanklehigh to keep up with our social media shenanigans!

GARET IS BACK! Garet is FINALLY back from her dumb baby vacation and is giving us the low down on post-partum life and hormones. That's right - would it really even be a Garet welcome back episode if we didn't spend it talking about yeeting yourself off a hormone cliff 24 hours after delivering a baby? We also hear a little bit about Katie's new job and getting run over by a bus that tries to suck your nipples off. In the words of Garet's doctor, "That's a really weird bus..." Our cup runneth over with the return of the dynamic duo and the magic we have here on this podcast so we hope you enjoy this episode.
ALSO - Please note that all patreon subscribers will continue to get ad-free episodes for the time being while we get back into the groove of making bonus episodes so head on over to www.patreon.com/thebarisanklehigh to sign up now!
