info = { ` This stands for "Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder".
Addionally , the term "neurodivergent" is a general term meaning someone who lives with a form of mental disorder which may impair or alter the way they act and react to the world around them .
While the term ADHD does address the attention and hyperactive aspects of the disorder , there are actually many other aspects that often go unaddressed . The main ones , however , are :
- Lack of focus , and conversely , hyperfocus !
- Impulsiveness
- Impaired ability to multitask
- Time management issues
- Executive dysfunction ( complicated , but basically an inability to do things right away )
- Difficulty remembering things ( especially details and things we don ' t find stimulating )
- Emotional dysregularity ( we have trouble regulating our emotions ! )
- Last , but not least , is something called "rejection sensitivity" , which can be hard to explain , but is essentially an extreme sensitivity to isolation , to the point where we will make up ( often harmful and incorrect ) reasons for why others must be avoiding us .
It isn ' t technically medically accepted , but is proven to be a common symptom among ADHD folks !
Two basic things you should recgonize about why we are this way is that for one , we don 't receive enough Dopamine for accomplishing things compared to neurotypicals, and it makes doing things we don' t like incredibly dreadful , and gives us a bit of a dependence on receiving more Dopamine constantly .
Second , the part of our brain that manages emotional regulation is underdeveloped , which makes our capacity for controlling emotions comparable sometimes to that of a child .
There ' s a lot more I wish I could say , but I can genuinely recommend the following link to the YouTube channel "How to ADHD" if you want to learn more , especially if you believe you have this disorder yourself ! ` }
