Bad Advice

Bad Advice

With ADHD we get to hear a lot of advice on how to get past our various symptoms. Sometimes that advice isn't so bad, sometimes it's pretty good - I mean that's what I'm trying to do with this podcast. But more often than not the advice we get for how to deal with our ADHD is downright bad.

In this episode we're going to be exploring some of this unhelpful advice and what makes it bad and hopefully how we might be able to turn it around into something useful.

This Episode's Top Tips

  1. Much of the ADHD advice available is not written by people with ADHD and doesn't consider the context and struggles of individuals with executive dysfunction. ADHD is a spectrum disorder with varying symptoms and levels, and advice may not work for everyone; individuals may have preferences or aversions to specific strategies or approaches based on their brain types.
  2. Common ADHD advice of "just do it" or "if you really wanted to do it, you'd do it" oversimplifies the challenges of ADHD and doesn't take into account how the symptoms of ADHD are going to prevent you from following through on that advice.
  3. ADHD is a real and impairing disorder, not an excuse or laziness. ADHD symptoms are chronic and significantly impact daily life.
