The Challenge of Boundary Setting with ADHD
Many individuals with ADHD struggle to recognize and maintain personal boundaries, which can lead to overwhelming situations. Research indicates that people with ADHD may find it difficult to acknowledge the boundaries of others, underscoring a broader challenge in their social interactions. This difficulty can result in negative outcomes such as increased stress and even burnout, as was the case for a speaker who experienced severe fatigue while transitioning from academic work to a different field. The lack of established boundaries can disrupt personal and professional commitments, leaving individuals feeling depleted and overextended.
