Get ready to uncover the truth behind ADHD treatment and discover a more holistic approach! Join me as Phil shares his journey from senior police officer to founder of ADHD 360. His unique insights stem from recognising the social challenges faced by those with untreated ADHD and advocating for better management within the NHS. In our chat, we’ll discuss the evolution of ADHD medication and why a tailored approach is crucial for effective treatment. 🎙️ In this episode: 00:00 Introduction to ADHD Medication 00:35 Welcome and Guest Introduction 01:11 Understanding ADHD Medication 03:27 How ADHD Medication Works 04:38 Types of ADHD Medication 09:32 Addressing Common Concerns 13:30 The Evolution of ADHD Medication 18:29 Managing Expectations and Costs 23:35 Conclusion and Final Thoughts 🕺More about Phil Anderton.

Having recognised, when serving as senior police officer, that people with untreated or poorly managed ADHD can have inappropriate social outcomes including falling into crime, and trying for many years as an expert in the subject to convince the NHS, both locally and nationally to do more to improve these outcomes, in 2019 he started ADHD 360 to do just that. Expecting to have a small organisation treating 2-30 patients with 3-4 staff, 360 now employs 200+ staff and in July of this year they assessed 1,512 new patients, a record and more than the whole of the NHS put together.
