Is it ADHD or does everyone have piles?
(No, not that kind. We’re talking about the never-ending stacks of life!)
New episode out now! 🎙️ On ADHD or Life – A Couple’s Perspective, Adam and Donna take on the mountain of “piles” that seem to follow us everywhere—piles of washing, piles of paperwork, piles of… well, doom. But is it just an ADHD thing, or does everyone have piles? (And no, we’re still not talking about the medical kind.)

Episode Highlights:
- Donna’s new jacket appreciation moment (gotta celebrate the wins!)
- The “pile” dilemma: Is it ADHD, or is modern life just overloaded for everyone?
- Adam’s cheeky confession: Did he trick Donna into a life-metaphor episode? Are our piles just a way to hide stuff? Out of sight, out of mind?
- Emotional regulation and shame spirals—how mess and clutter can trigger big feelings, especially with ADHD.
- The great debate: Does ADHD magnify the mess, or is everyone secretly living in a pile fort?
- Coping strategies: How we’re tackling our piles (spoiler: it’s not magic, but it is honest).
- Real talk about whether modern life is just too much, and how to stop the piles from taking over.
5 Minute Moans:
- Adam’s gripe: Why has Donna stopped turning things off? (Seriously, who needs all the lights on?)
- Donna’s slow-burn complaint: Why does it take Adam so long to finish his coffee before she gets her hour of peace in bed?
