Understanding How ADHD Works in Your Brain
It feels like you are driving a race car with bicycle brakes. You know what you need to do, but your brain refuses to start. You are not lazy or broken. Your brain simply processes the world in a unique way.
What is it?
ADHD is a performance disorder rather than a knowledge disorder. It is a delay in the brain's executive management system. This affects how you regulate your attention, emotions, and actions.
Signs & Symptoms
Why does this happen?
Your prefrontal cortex acts as the boss of your brain. In an ADHD brain, this boss lacks enough dopamine to stay alert. Dopamine is a chemical that helps signals jump between brain cells. When dopamine is low, your brain struggles to find interest in anything that is not urgent or exciting.
