NOTE

Time Perception Requires Different Strategies

Individuals with ADHD experience significant challenges in time management and estimation due to neurological differences. Unlike neurotypical individuals who can often overcome interruptions in time perception with personal motivation, those with ADHD struggle to control their approach to time, leading to feelings of overwhelm and shame.

This highlights the need for tailored strategies to assist individuals with ADHD in managing time effectively.
