The Diagnosis That Finally Made Everything Make Sense: ADHD, Anxiety, and an Eating Disorder with Jay Salazar

The Diagnosis That Finally Made Everything Make Sense: ADHD, Anxiety, and an Eating Disorder with Jay Salazar

Middle school teacher and content creator Jay Salazar joins for a candid conversation about living with ADHD, anxiety, and eating disorders — and what changed after receiving a late ADHD diagnosis in adulthood. Jay opens up about growing up with rigid, all-or-nothing thinking, relying on spite as motivation, and struggling silently with disordered eating, body image, and overstimulation.

Together, they explore the connection between ADHD and emotional regulation, how therapy became a turning point in his recovery, and why vulnerability matters — especially for men and Latino communities where mental health stigma can run deep. Jay also shares practical strategies for working with a neurodivergent brain, creating supportive classroom culture, and embracing the idea that growth is never linear.
