Catie and Erik's Infinite Quest: An ADHD Adventure

In this episode, we take more questions from Catie's ever-growing list of Tiktok Q&A options. We discuss keeping your doors locked, how to tell a friend you think they might have ADHD (consensus:...maybe don't? Or do? We're still sort of torn) and offer a few pieces of advice and suggestions for ADHD brains. The Announcement Stuff: As a reminder, we have an Infinite Quest Patreon available!

In this episode, Erik and Catie sit down to do a Q&A and immediately get distracted and record an entire podcast about an entirely different subject because that's about as on-brand as it gets. We discuss systems and strategies for keeping your life (moderately) together, and get weirdly in depth about post it notes.

Warning: This episode features an exceptionally candid discussion about depression and, to some extent, suicide. Catie also cries which tends to freak people out, but here we are. Erik and Catie open up about their own experiences in dealing with depression. We talk a little about the rates of ADHD and depression and offer some [maybe] slightly helpful solutions on how to support your partners or friends who might be dealing with depression. Mostly, though this is an episode about getting stuff off of our chest, because it's been a hard week. If you are in crisis, text 741741 to the Crisis Help Line, 24/7.

Warning: This episode gets A Little Real towards the end. In this episode, we take an excellent question from Tiktok and discuss our experiences with hyperfocus, hyperfixation -- and what happens when that good, good dopamine wears off, and you're on to the next thing, the next idea, the next Netflix binge-- but what do you do with that anger, that resentment, that feeling that you just can't stick to anything long enough to make it worthwhile.

In this episode, Catie and Erik sit down to talk more about ADHD relationships and partnerships and the pitfalls and frustrations therein. Later, we're joined by Tiktoker, longtime knower of Catie in real life and professional therapist Alex Hogg, AKA Alosaurolophus. We talk relationships, tigers, sushi, therapy and more and discover just how ridiculous of an idea it was to bring three outspoken ADHD-havers into a conversation together. It gets weird, y'all.

In this episode, Catie finally gets the opportunity to vindicate over three days of useless academic research while Erik desperately tries to follow what the hell she's talking about. We talk about Christmas, Charles Dickens, a WEIRD amount about the size of the average Dickensian street urchin and, ultimately, Catie gets to share one of her FAVORITE useless pieces of knowledge. Plus, an extra special thank you and the neighbor's car radio. To see the sources/materials Catie used to put this research together, visit the Extras Page at InfiniteQuestPodcast.com/Extras.
