Prepare to have your minds blown. Also prepare to skip the first few minutes if you don’t want to hear a mini rant about John Fetterman (you will, however, be deprived of hearing what happens when you shave Gritty, the Philadelphia Flyers mascot, from head to toe). In this episode of Crazy Together, hosts Marcus and Esme dive into hypermobility and its surprising connections with ADHD, autism, dysautonomia and chronic pain. They unpack personal experiences, summarize emerging research showing higher prevalence of hypermobility among neurodivergent people, and explain how connective-tissue issues can affect balance, breathing, and mental health. They also discuss practical next steps — from advocating with medical providers to targeted physical therapy — and highlight the need for more research while sharing hopeful, actionable advice for managing symptoms.
