Meet the reporter who threw herself into the ADHD universe | Hyperfocus

If you follow ADHD news, you might’ve heard that diagnosis rates in women nearly doubled during the pandemic. Danielle Elliot was one of the people, receiving her diagnosis just before she turned 37. Danielle is also a science and health journalist. So, she did the thing that many reporters are inclined to do — she began investigating this big, new thing in her life and how it fit into the world around her. As she dug in deeper, she landed on two big questions relating to the pandemic diagnosis boom: Why women? And why now? Her answers culminated in a new podcast from Understood.org called “Climbing the Walls.” It’s a six-episode series and the first installment is out now. This week on Hyperfocus, Danielle joins the show to talk about her ADHD experience and what it’s like reporting a story where you’re one of the characters.
