This week Robbie and Jordan chat about POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome). Have you ever "stood up too fast" and felt faint or dizzy, with fuzzy vision and a rapid pulse? POTS correlates with ADHD, Autism and other neurodivergences, but the condition isn't widely known and symptoms overlap with many other conditions. Fortunately, the tests are simple, and lifestyle changes like upping your water and sodium intake can resolve symptoms for some people.

CORRECTIONS: a) The test for POTS involves measuring heart rate after standing, not blood pressure as Jordan said. b) Robbie refers to a hormone in dental freezing compound; this is epinephrine, not norepinephrine.

Robbie refers to an episode of On Being featuring Amanda Ripley and Jordan mentions an episode of The ADHD Adults on ADHD & eating disorders. You can also check out HSIHADHD 14 where we discuss our own struggles with body image and eating disorders.
