00:06 Understanding ADHD Approaches 04:56 The Band-Aid Approach vs. Transformation 14:19 Information Overload and Implementation 23:05 The Three Types of Regulation

Summary

In this episode, I discuss two primary approaches to managing ADHD: the band-aid approach, which focuses on quick fixes, and the transformational approach, which emphasizes internal work and awareness. I highlight the importance of understanding dysregulation and its impact on the effectiveness of ADHD management tools (yes even using calendars can get better with regulation).

Takeaways

  • The band-aid approach offers quick fixes but lacks long-term effectiveness.
  • Transformation requires internal work and awareness, not just external tools.
  • Dysregulation can hinder the effectiveness of ADHD management tools.
  • Information hoarding can lead to inaction and frustration.
  • Effective ADHD management combines both external tools and internal transformation.
  • Understanding the three types of regulation is crucial for managing ADHD.
  • Nervous system regulation alone is not enough for lasting change.
  • Transformation takes time and patience, not instant solutions.
