ADHD behaviors aren’t moral failures.

They are simply indications that our brains work fundamentally differently.

It means we have different needs than what we’re taught to expect.

Procrastination, Emotional Intensity, Overwhelm, etc. are simply signals that…

First of all I thought I was already following but I wasn’t so we’ll be remedying that momentarily. But I just want to acknowledge how much work @ThinckFinck puts into compiling resources, sharing them, and encouraging others. A TRUE inspiration!!! https://t.co/8onoTWFZkD

Learning to properly assign which struggles are directly related to my ADHD, embrace those things as a part of me, and show them love and compassion.

Working with these challenges from this foundation is infinitely more effective than with self-judgment & self-loathing.

ADHD gets a bad rap for naturally gravitating towards self-destructive behaviors to get the dopamine our body needs to function.

How can we train ourselves, instead,
to get it from activities that
naturally create Peak Experiences, including Peak Performance?

With my husband, @ThinckFinck, we've redefined a lot of our struggles both in our relationships & professionally.

We've realized, for us, success includes having a safe, supportive ADHD team, who help us show up the way we want.

Now ADHD Success looks more like this.

For some ADHD folks, the hyperactivity happens almost entirely on the inside:

• Racing, swirling thoughts
• Expansive, creative thinking
• Different ways of seeing the world
• Intense emotions

Often dismissed & misunderstood as Spacey, Ditzy, Klutzy, etc https://t.co/4HRv30WugH

2) FLASH EMOTIONS

ADHD people can be blindsided when emotions change at lightning speed, without time to reflect, think or feel.

We often take actions or express emotion with NO FILTER, when this happens.#ADHDAwarenessMonth pic.twitter.com/y7omwaHsGx

“ADHD doesn’t discriminate by gender or race…

“White boys are still more likely to be diagnosed and treated… than anyone else… this leads to an inequity in care that hurts girls of any background and children of color of any gender” https://t.co/f9r8RCeuP1

For many folks, ADHD comes with physical Lethargy,

NOT physical hyperactivity.

But the hyperactivity isn’t missing.

It’s just invisible.

Instead, that hyperactivity shows up as internal intensity:

racing thoughts
& intense emotions. https://t.co/yE5OOZ9OGP

ADHD is constantly having
Insincere &
Dishonest
Motives inaccurately ascribed to Unintentional &
Involuntary
Behaviors,

While, in reality, the behaviors stem from the equivalent of chronic, involuntary “Brain Hiccups”.

6) Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD)

Extreme emotional sensitivity to being criticized or rejected, whether real or perceived.

May include things like:
• low self-esteem
• avoidance of social settings
• high expectations for self
• approval-seeking behavior
• etc. pic.twitter.com/RRq5PfdGM4
