Thanks to ACAMH as I discuss ADHD and Tic Disorders in another In Conversation podcast this time joined by Professor Chris Hollis.

Differentiating between stimming movements and tics. The effectiveness of non-stimulant medication in treating the symptoms of ADHD. Impact of the ongoing shortage of ADHD medication on patients. Why people should be encouraged to get involved in this research and the clinical implications from this research. To listen
