The Curse of ADHD and the Adaptation to Chaos

People with ADHD often feel overwhelmed and struggle with organizing their lives. They adapt to their ADHD by creating chaos because they believe that failure is inevitable. However, this adaptation disables their habit circuitry, which is crucial for forming consistent behavior. The competitive advantage of ADHD individuals lies in their ability to perform well in chaotic environments. By reframing the belief that failure is inevitable, individuals with ADHD can delay the inevitable failure and give themselves more time to form habits.
