When You Feel Like Your ADHD Can't Take Care of Myself
It is hard when it feels like your ADHD can't take care of myself. You know what you need to do, but your body will not move. This is a common struggle for brilliant minds with different wiring.
What is it?
This state is known as executive dysfunction. It occurs when the command center of your brain cannot organize the steps needed for daily life. It is not a lack of willpower, it is a management problem in the brain.
Signs & Symptoms
Why does this happen?
The Prefrontal Cortex is the brain's manager. In ADHD brains, this area has lower levels of dopamine. Without enough dopamine, the 'Start' button does not work correctly. Your Amygdala may also see simple chores as a threat, which causes your body to freeze in place.
The Action Plan
Hydrate first
Drink one glass of water to give your brain basic fuel.
The One-Item Sweep
Pick up exactly one piece of trash or one clothing item.
Change the sensory input
Put on a bright light or play an upbeat song to wake up your dopamine.
