ADHD Emotional Complexities

Emotional regulation is the lesser researched of the executive functions.

That's because it's difficult to apply scientific method to emotions.

But emotions and emotional management can be really difficult to manage when you have ADHD.

Thankfully, to folks like James Ochoa, we can begin to understand how to help people without medication.

Today, I'm sharing an article I wrote about procrastination because being a symptom of ADHD means it's not your fault.

I also share 2 tips, so be sure and listen to episode 172 on iTunes.

Everyone struggles with putting things off every once in a while, but what activates our brains into action is directly impacted by brain chemistry.

Understanding our executive function is key in unlocking the mystery of why someone with ADHD can so easily do some things and delay, delay, delay doing others.

JENNIE'S AWESOME QUOTE:

“Everyone benefits by dropping the judgement altogether and just focus on how to create some forward movement.”

Procrastination in ADHD

...when everything is now or not now, deadlines and target dates become abstract ideas that have no tangible meaning.

In fact, people with ADHD live in such a permanent state of present time, they have difficulty constructing a beginning, middle, and end to their activities. This is why you will hear, “I don’t even know where to begin.”

Dr. Joy Prescesky shares with us the joy of helping others who also live with ADHD everyday, just like her.

She left a successful career as a vet to stay at home with her kids, affording her the opportunity to go back to school and become an ADHD coach.

You see, one of the benefits of her job is that she works over the phone from home.

Working as an ADHD and executive function coach in Canada, you can contact her through http://www.adhdinterrupted.com

JOY'S AWESOME QUOTE:

“Once you have a diagnosis, educate yourself and then own your ADHD.”

ADHD Everyday

Dr. Joy brings to the table the fact that she lives with ADHD everyday...along with her kids.

She knows first-hand there is no cookie cutter approach to treating and managing your ADHD.

As a knowledgable and resourceful coach, she recommends checking out the following:

1) mindfulness

2) exercise

3) medication

4) nutrition

I'm stressing the message this week to just be you. Just be yourself.

Often and especially when I'm working with clients who are looking for answers outside of themselves, I'm encouraging them, over and over, to look inside.

The way you are, the way you process information, your beliefs, your values, your experiences...all shape who you are.

You are awesome...flaws and all...so, you are flawsome!

Join me in my Reach Furthur group and learn to shine from within. seeinadhd.leadpages.co/rfcoupon/
