Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela
Dr. K and Dr. Micaela dive into the side of ADHD most people don’t hear about. The everyday quirks, emotional struggles, and hidden habits that go far beyond “not paying attention.” They explore how ADHD shows up in piles of clutter (“doom piles”), impulse-driven conversations, and difficulty filtering what really matters.
The discussion digs into:
Why focus often collapses before big deadlines or events
The link between ADHD and social anxiety, rejection sensitivity, and “ADHD guilt”
How emotional regulation and chronic boredom fuel cycles of shame
Why masking drains energy and damages relationships
Practical coping strategies from timers and structured breaks to unmasking safely with trusted people
This episode reframes ADHD as more than distraction—it’s about emotions, identity, and the way your brain interacts with the world.

Why Men Keep Losing Control
In this episode, Dr. K takes a hard look at anger, violence, and why some men seem to lose control. Using the Raja Jackson situation as a case study, he unpacks how hurt, ego, and value systems can pile up until anger explodes.
Dr. K breaks down:
How “perceived value systems” shape what we see as respect or disrespect
The hidden role of hurt and egocentric thinking before anger even shows up
Why some violence is “reactive” rather than psychopathic
Red flags that make someone prone to abuse
Why men, in particular, are socialized to convert fear or sadness into anger
It’s a deep dive into the psychology of rage, how it develops, and what it takes to break the cycle whether in yourself or in people you know.

How Your Phone Controls You
In this episode, Dr. K breaks down the hype around dopamine detoxes and social media breaks—and why they don’t actually solve the problem. Drawing on his background in addiction psychiatry, he explains that detoxing only pauses the cycle temporarily; if you go back to the same habits, nothing changes.
Instead, Dr. K explores the neuroscience of dopamine, how technology hijacks our survival systems, and why balance is about building real-world rewards, not chasing quick fixes.
Topics include:
Why “dopamine detoxes” are a myth
The neuroscience of withdrawal and tolerance
How social media and video games mimic survival rewards like achievement and community
Why balance means creating real-world alternatives, not just unplugging for a week
Practical tips: protecting your morning dopamine, building sustainable habits, and shifting cravings toward healthier activities
This is a thoughtful look at why tech is so addictive and how to reclaim your brain from it.
