Camping Out at the Awareness Barrier
Many individuals with ADHD often find themselves stuck at the awareness barrier, not fully aware of the impact of their ADHD and the options available to them. They might seek tactical support and believe that a specific system or tool is all they need to address their challenges. However, it's important to recognize that ADHD goes beyond just symptoms and requires a deeper understanding of causation. Hyperfocus is often seen as a superpower, but it's crucial to acknowledge its downsides, such as neglecting self-care and experiencing crashes. Another common mindset is viewing ADHD as a curse, hoping for a magical solution to make it go away. It's essential to develop awareness of the context and the impact of ADHD on relationships and personal well-being. Through coaching, individuals can gain a better understanding of their unique experiences and discover more effective ways of managing their ADHD.
