The Dichotomy of ADHD

Hey Team!

I was recently thinking about some of the ways that ADHD can manifest in seemingly opposite ways. One moment, we're laser-focused, and the next, we're completely derailed by the tiniest hiccup.

In this episode, we'll be exploring the idea of the dichotomy of ADHD. How it can feel like even our symptoms are inconsistent. We'll be looking at how our ADHD brains can take us from hyperfocus to total distraction, from being impulsive to utterly paralyzed, and why sometimes we thrive in chaos but crumble over minor setbacks.

And we'll also be looking at how while many of these ideas may feel like they are in total opposition, that they may in fact have a similar root cause.

This Episode's Top Tips

  1. Realize that many of the dichotomies of ADHD actually come from the same source, such as hyperfocus and being unable to focus both stem from a lack of ability to regulate our focus.
  2. Often, when we encounter one of these dichotomies, we need to work on reframing what's going on so that we can apply an appropriate strategy.
  3. Regardless of what you're doing, but especially when you are over-functioning, it's important to take care of your needs.
