Status Updates From Now It All Makes Sense: How...

The ADHD mind is complex. Be curious. Avoid judgement. Be kind and give patience where patience is due.

After all, when the emotional dysregulation becomes really bad and an escalation does reach boiling point, someone can say something in that moment of rage that can be deeply hurtful for the partner on the receiving end and the person who said it will feel great guilt.

Communication suffers when there is an emotional trigger, especially with a neurodivergent person. Something in a conversation will trigger an emotional response. The neurotypical partner might not have realized that the ADHD partner has been triggered or that they’ve said something that has ‘hit hard’ with the ADHD partner.

Always judge yourself on your outcomes and not your processes. Your process might seem weird to a neurotypical audience, but it’s your extraordinary way of operating that will separate your results from those that are more ordinary.

Love this guy's videos and his voice is very calming :)
