ADHD, like dyslexia, is a neurodevelopmental challenge that affects the way our brains process information. 🧠 It’s not about intelligence or capability; it’s about how our brains are wired. And guess what? If you have dyslexia, you’re more likely to face the ADHD challenge as well. 🤔
These difficulties can manifest in various ways. For instance, someone with ADHD might have trouble staying focused in a meeting or classroom due to small distractions. They might struggle to prioritise tasks, have difficulty getting started on tasks, or have trouble regulating their sleep and alertness. ⏰
It’s important to note that ADHD is not a problem of willpower. 💪 People with ADHD often find it incredibly difficult to focus unless the task is something they find interesting or if there is a sense of urgency. This is due to the way the brain is wired, not a lack of effort or determination. 🎯
The video also highlights that ADHD affects people of all intelligence levels and from all walks of life. It’s not a problem with intelligence, but rather a challenge with the brain’s management system. 🌈
Remember, having ADHD or dyslexia doesn’t limit your potential. It just means you might need different strategies or supports to thrive. If you suspect you might have ADHD, reach out to a healthcare professional for a diagnosis and treatment options. 🩺
