ADHD: How to Stop Interrupting and Reclaim Your Conversations
It happens again. You are in the middle of a great talk. Suddenly, a brilliant thought hits you. You blurt it out before the other person finishes. You do not mean to be rude. Your brain just moves faster than the conversation.
What is it?
Interrupting is a sign of impulsivity. It is a gap between having a thought and your brain's ability to hit the brakes. For many, it is a way to keep from losing a thought forever.
Signs & Symptoms
Why does this happen?
This involves your prefrontal cortex. This area manages 'inhibitory control' or your internal brakes. In ADHD brains, low dopamine levels make it hard to wait for a future reward. Sharing your idea gives you an instant hit of dopamine. Your brain chooses that tiny spark over the social rule of waiting.
The Action Plan
The Physical Anchor
Touch your chin or lip to remind your brain that the 'gate' is closed for a moment.
The Mental Placeholder
Visualize your thought sitting in a waiting room while the other person speaks.
The Validation Bridge
When they finish, start by saying, 'That is interesting,' before sharing your saved point.
