You Might Have ADHD and Not Know It | Dr Omar Shafie

You Might Have ADHD and Not Know It | Dr Omar Shafie

What are the real signs of ADHD and why do so many people go undiagnosed for years?


In this episode of the WellSome Podcast, Dr. Omar Shafie, an American board-certified family medicine consultant, breaks down the truth about ADHD, including its symptoms, different presentation types, and the biggest misconceptions surrounding the condition.


The conversation explores how ADHD is a genetic neurodevelopment disorder — not simply the result of trauma, stress, or “laziness.” Dr. Omar explains why ADHD symptoms often persist throughout life and why social media has created so much confusion around the condition.


Dr. Omar also shares his personal experience of being diagnosed with ADHD at40, revealing how a high IQ can sometimes mask symptoms and help people compensate externally while silently struggling internally.


In this episode, we discuss:

• Introduction to ADHD

• Types, Symptoms & Adult Presentation

• How High IQ & Social Media Mask ADHD

• Nature vs. Nurture: Genetics & Trauma

• Identifying Core Symptoms Consistent

• Gender & Environmental Impacts

• Navigating ADHD Relationships

• Executive Dysfunction & Dopamine

• Assessment & Multimodal Treatment

• Supplements, Dr. Omar's Story & Outro


If you’ve ever wondered whether you might have ADHD or want to better understand how the ADHD brain works, this episode is for you.
