AuDHD: changing the story (RCPsych Congress 2026)
This podcast explores AuDHD, the co-occurrence of autism and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and why recognising this presentation is increasingly important in contemporary psychiatric practice. Although autism and ADHD commonly occur together, both conditions were historically viewed and assessed separately, contributing to delayed or missed diagnoses for many individuals. Recorded at the Royal College of Psychiatrists' International Congress in Liverpool, Dr Myooran Canagaratnam speaks with Dr Khurram Sadiq and Dr Asif Bachlani, who have developed clinical expertise in this area. They explain how features of autism and ADHD interact across the lifespan, the challenges of assessment and diagnosis, and the implications for treatment, service development and workplace support. The discussion highlights the importance of a personalised, strengths-based approach to understanding and supporting people with AuDHD.

What every psychiatrist should know about insomnia
Insomnia involves difficulty getting to sleep, staying asleep and waking up too early in the morning. It can increase the risk of depression and anxiety in those affected, and can have a major impact on quality of life. In this podcast, Dr Joshua Heslop and Dr Hugh Selsick look at the nature of insomnia and its psychological, behavioural and physiological impacts. They also examine common misconceptions that people may have, and explore potential treatment options, including cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), pharmacological interventions and future trends in sleep medicine.

Vicarious trauma: Part 4 – reflective practice
Working to support the wellbeing of others can be immensely rewarding, and a real motivator for why we work in the health sector. But over time, exposure to the suffering of others - particularly those in mental distress and at the risk of suicide - can impact our own wellbeing and how we feel, including experiencing vicarious trauma. In 2025, NHS Sussex developed training that looks at the different ways we can keep ourselves and our colleagues safe. The training provides an overview of vicarious trauma and is made up of three complimentary sections, looking at different aspects of personal resilience, workplace wellbeing and reflective practice. In this podcast, Lucy Tucknott and Molly Booth discuss the impact of reflective practice to reduce the harms of vicarious trauma and break down different models of reflective practice, as well as some barriers that may occur. They explore how developing a deep sense of awareness can help us care for ourselves, whilst we're also caring for others.
