College student Chris Lozano seems calm on the outside. On the inside, however, he is "like a volcano." He struggles to sleep, sit still, or stop his mind wandering. His only way to get relief is to go to the gym, or to ride motorcycles. Learn how Chris was diagnosed with ADHD at 26, and why he returned to college to pursue a career in helping others like him.
This episode also features Chris sharing his experiences with substance abuse, and other risky behavior.
