What is the real cost of having ADHD?

In this episode, Sam and Katie explore the ADHD Tax - the hidden costs that come with having ADHD. It’s estimated that people with ADHD lose over £1,600 each year to the ADHD tax. But it’s not just about the money. ADHD cause also have a significant impact on emotional wellbeing, leaving many people feeling ashamed, angry and overwhelmed.

Sam and Katie speak to Maddy Alexander-Grout, personal finance expert and founder of the Mad About Money community, about what the ADHD Tax really looks like and, most importantly, how to manage it.
