8: Stop Chasing ADHD Quick Fixes: A Better Way to Manage ADHD

You've tried every calendar, app, and ADHD tip you can find, and you're still stuck in the same loop. If the band-aid approach to ADHD management has stopped working for you, this episode is for you. There are two approaches to managing ADHD: the band-aid approach, where you keep reaching for the next external tool, and the transformational approach, where you do the internal regulation work that makes the tools actually stick. I'll walk you through why band aids fall off when you're dysregulated, why ADHD is an implementation problem more than an information problem, and how to tell when your learning has tipped into information hoarding. We'll also get into the three areas of regulation that make up the ADHD reset, and why nervous system work on its own won't get you there. 00:00 – Two Approaches to ADHD Management: Band Aid vs. Transformation 04:56 – Why Band Aids Fail When You're in ADHD Survival Mode 08:23 – Signs You're Chasing a Band-Aid Fix Without Realizing It 13:54 – ADHD Information Overload and the Implementation Problem 19:05 – How Information Hoarding Soothes Dysregulation and Keeps You Stuck 23:17 – The Three Areas of Regulation Behind the ADHD Reset Check out the full show notes and other resources at https://jennafree.com/blog/manage-adhd-quick-fixes Let's stay connected!
