The Importance of Acknowledging Feelings
Intellectual understanding is essential for emotional processing, especially for individuals with autism and ADHD. Engaging with feelings purely on an emotional level may not suffice, as intellectual clarity can provide necessary insights that help to alleviate discomfort. For instance, when confronting interpersonal issues, analyzing the root causes—like recognizing someone as boring—can lead to emotional relief by clarifying the situation rather than merely dealing with feelings superficially. This highlights the significance of matching emotional experiences with cognitive insights to move towards better emotional health.
