O TYM ODCINKU
In this episode of Question The Default, Harry is joined by ADHD coach and founder of the Drug Free ADHD Method, Joseph Pack, to explore alternative ways of understanding and managing ADHD beyond medication.
Following being diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 26, Joseph began experimenting with lifestyle interventions rather than relying on medication, transforming how he experiences his mind and energy.
The conversation dives into the complexity of ADHD, challenging the idea that it is purely a disorder, and instead reframing it as a different operating system that thrives in the right environment.
Joseph opens up about:
• His personal journey from a disruptive childhood to receiving an ADHD diagnosis
• Experiencing life-threatening seizures linked to lifestyle habits
• Discovering cold exposure and breathwork as powerful tools for focus and calm
• The limitations of medication and why many feel unsupported without it
• His “skills not pills” philosophy for long-term ADHD management
• How environment, work, and education systems can either suppress or unlock ADHD potential
• The impact of alcohol, sleep, and stress on ADHD symptoms
A thought-provoking episode that challenges conventional narratives around ADHD and offers a different lens on focus, control, and what it means to truly understand the mind.
Question The Default is in support of Campaign Against Living Miserably.
