[00:00:00]You have said over and over again the brain is changeable, which is very exciting. Can you explain that a little bit better? Yes. So, just like when I trained in early 2000, I finished in early 2000, we did not really think of ADHD as being lasting until adulthood.

[00:00:17]We also didn't think that the brain changed. It was you got what you got and it's fixed and you do what you do with it and oh well.

[00:00:26]The concept of neuroplasticity with your brain changing with experience it it did exist, but it just wasn't adapted or adopted well in the scientific community. So, probably I would say maybe early to mid 20 2000s is when it really started taking hold that the brain really does change, rewires based on your behaviors and the things that you do, which is a wonderful thing because it means that bad habits that form can be unformed and new habits can be built on top of that, allowing us to do things differently and not just kind of get being stuck in a rut that doesn't change.
