Got ADHD? Do you struggle? Have you recognized how difficult it is to plan, make decisions and manage time?
In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, ADHD coach Jeff Copper sits down with Dr. John Eastwood for a thought-provoking discussion on the true nature of ADHD. While often perceived as a deficit of attention, ADHD is increasingly understood as a challenge of self-regulation. Throughout the conversation, they explore the role of working memory, the mental effort required for thinking, and the compelling urge to escape when tasks become overwhelming. They shed light on a critical insight: ADHD is not just about focus—it’s about making thinking itself more manageable, which in turn supports self-regulation. If you struggle with executive functioning, this episode offers valuable perspectives you won’t want to miss. Listen for an open and insightful exchange that could change the way you understand ADHD.
