ADHD: How to Work With It Instead of Against It
Do you ever feel like you are fighting your own mind? You want to start a task, but your brain says no. It feels like an invisible wall is standing in your way. This is not a lack of willpower. It is just your unique operating system at work. Let's explore adhd how to work with it using tools that actually fit your brain.
What is it?
Working with ADHD means moving from a 'should' mindset to a 'how' mindset. It is the practice of setting up your environment to spark interest. Instead of using pressure, you use your brain's natural craving for novelty and reward.
Signs & Symptoms
Why does this happen?
Your brain has a different way of handling dopamine. This is the chemical that helps you feel motivated. In an ADHD brain, the prefrontal cortex needs more stimulation to 'turn on.' This part of your brain acts like a CEO. When dopamine is low, the CEO goes on break, and it becomes very hard to start boring tasks.
