Translating ADHD

Time, Transitions, and Hyperfocus (pt. 1)


Listen Later

Transitions are difficult for those of us with ADHD. Often we can become stuck in one of two gears: the neutral gear of "the planner" or the 5th gear of "the doer" with little access to the gears between the two. This inability to access other gears tends to keep us stuck in either a pre-action or reaction mode.


In today's episode Cam and Shelly discuss how to identify which gear you tend to be stuck in, and how those of us with ADHD can begin to access the gears between neutral and 5th.

"Vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare.

-Japanese Proverb
