Ellie Middleton on Autism & ADHD: "If you try and fight it, you're never going to win"

After dropping out of school, being misdiagnosed with Generalised Anxiety Disorder, and constantly feeling misunderstood, Ellie Middleton was finally diagnosed with Autism and ADHD.


Since then, Ellie has built a thriving online community of over 300,000 people, founded the groundbreaking Unmasked community for neurodivergents, and worked with global brands like The Independent, Google, and LinkedIn to change the narrative on neurodiversity.


In this chat with Ben, Ellie talks about the lost generation of Autistic ADHDers and why so many neurodivergent women are slipping through the net. She also delves into the dangers and benefits of self-diagnosis.
