This week, we continue our look at ADHD and depression with our guest, friend of the pod and Mentavi Health and ADHD Online business development representative Ian Hoefelmeyer.
As a kid, Ian was labeled the ‘ADHD kid’ and even though his teachers observed some of ADHD traits, it wasn’t until years later when he was struggling in college that he sought out a diagnosis and then medication. Like so many with ADHD, Ian also struggled with some of ADHD’s comorbidities including depression and it was the sudden isolation of the pandemic, combined with stressors at work, that added fuel to his most recent bout of the mood disorder.
This candid conversation is a reminder of all the different ways depression can show up in a person’s life and the power masking can have on a person’s life. For Ian, that masking was without a doubt his reliance on his sense of humor. He also shares how Cognitive-Behavior Therapy changed his life and what tools he continues to use to make sure he stays mindful and balanced.
