ADHD: How Do You Get Diagnosed and Gain Clarity
You feel like you are working twice as hard to get half as much done. It is not a lack of willpower or a character flaw. Your brain simply uses a different operating system than most people. Getting answers is the first step toward finally working with your brain instead of against it.
What is it?
An ADHD diagnosis is a clinical evaluation by a medical professional. It determines if your brain's executive functions meet the criteria for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. It is a way to map out how your unique nervous system processes information and energy.
Signs & Symptoms
Why does this happen?
The ADHD brain often has a different way of handling dopamine. This is the chemical that helps you feel motivated and rewarded. The prefrontal cortex acts like the conductor of an orchestra. In an ADHD brain, the conductor struggles to keep the instruments in sync. This makes it hard to filter out distractions or switch tasks easily.
