Appears on the I’m ADHD! No, you’re not podcast with comedian Paul Whitehouse and his wife Dr Mine Conkbayir, Suzy agreed she met the criteria after being given a checklist of typical behaviors – including lateral thinking, hyperfocus and rapid pattern recognition.
Referring to a possible connection with gender identity, Dr. Mine added: ‘Non-conformity is less influenced by social expectations, particularly around gender roles, which, as we know, leads to higher rates of gender, non-conformity and a diffuse sense of self.
“So for me, I imagined you as Edward, but with Ed and now with Suzy Eddy.”
According to Dr. Mine, on average, fifty percent of those diagnosed with dyslexia also have ADHD.
“The experts like you could all examine me and say, actually, you have these qualities and these extra qualities,” Suzy replied.
‘Because people would come up to me when I was doing stand-up and say, “I think you have dyslexia.”
Suzy previously said that her decision to stick with straight male or trans roles stems from the fact that there is too much politics around the subject. She described the debate around biological sex as a “minefield.”
“My position on all of this is that women’s rights are human rights and trans rights are human rights and we have to live together,” she said. The Telegraph in 2024.
‘I would fight like crazy for women’s rights, but I don’t want to get into the biological determinism argument because it’s a minefield. I just sail on.
“I don’t think I’m hurting anyone.”
