WTF is AuDHD?

Ellie (32) and Paige (30) are sisters who were diagnosed late with autism and ADHD (AuDHD). However, the way it manifests in them doesn't look the same. With AuDHD only becoming an official diagnosis in 2013, the lack of research not only resulted in late diagnosis and mental health issues, but also left Ellie and Paige feeling alone and confused. This podcast is a space where Ellie and Paige share their experiences, in the hopes it will help others. It explores the vast manifestations of neurodivergence and emphasises how even sisters with the same condition can look completely different.

  • E26 | AuDHD and employment: You're not a failure, you're burnt out
    Jul 14 2025

    We're diving into what it’s really like navigating work with AuDHD. We chat about our personal job histories - the burnout, the boredom, the passion, and the pivots - and why sticking to one career path can feel impossible. If you’ve ever loved and hated your job at the same time, or blamed yourself for not being “cut out” for work, this one’s for you. You’re not lazy - you’re likely unsupported. We also remind you (and ourselves) to not lose self-compassion - it's so important to not turn on yourself!

  • E25 | Why AuDHD is so hard to treat (and live with!)
    Jul 7 2025

    Why is AuDHD so hard to manage and treat? In this episode, we explore lived contradictions of having both ADHD and autism - where one part of your brain craves routine and the other thrives on chaos, often resulting in burnout. We share real-life examples from ourselves and you - our listeners! We unpack why treatments often fall short, and highlight how young the concept of AuDHD really is - including in clinical settings.

  • E24 | Understanding your AuDHD brain - with an AuDHD Clinical Psychologist
    Jun 30 2025

    In this episode, we’re excited to be joined by Mike Cochrane (@nzpsychologyclinic), a Clinical Psychologist and fellow AuDHDer who specialises in Autistic, ADHD and AuDHD assessments. We had an insightful and validating chat about life with an AuDHD brain.


    Together, we unpack:


    • Commonly missed traits in ADHD and autism
    • How to get a diagnosis
    • Why diagnosis often comes with both relief and grief
    • Strategies for navigating executive dysfunction and overwhelm
    • How CBT and ACT can support AuDHDers - and when they fall short
    • The recent legislation change in NZ allowing GPs to diagnose ADHD
    • The importance of self-understanding, unmasking, and neurodivergent-led therapy
    • and more!


    We thoroughly enjoyed this chat and if you'd like more information about Mike Cochrane and his diagnosis process, head to nzpsychologyclinic.co.nz
