In this video I discuss ADHD with Antonia. She is an ADHD coach, as well as a person with years of lived experience with ADHD. We discuss some of the biggest mistakes she has made in managing her ADHD which she hopes others can learn from. We also talk about ADHD misinformation, self-acceptance, support, and more.

Modern research has given us a really clear picture of what causes ADHD. So what causes ADHD? Is it genetics, bad parents, childhood trauma, or something else entirely? We're also going to answer the questions "is there a cure for ADHD", and "can you develop ADHD later in life". This will be based on both the most up-to date high quality research, as well as my training and work as a psychologist who works with many ADHD clients.

In this video I'm going to teach you how to break ADHD brain freeze. ADHD brain freeze, is a symptom of the ADHD mind where you stare at a project, really wanting to begin, but you can't because your brain feels stuck. And it's similar to ADHD paralysis. ADHD Brain Freeze is caused by the Executive Function system in the brain becoming overwhelmed and thus freezing like an overwhelmed computer. Then that means the solutions need to be about minimizing internal mental strain by making the internal workings of the mind, external, make the mental physical. 00:00 ADHD Brain Freeze 00:48 Executive Functioning 01:32 An Example of Brain Freeze 01:58 Neurotypical Brains 02:23 Why ADHD Brains Work Differently 04:04 Executive Overwhelm 04:27 Bad Solutions 04:56 Good Solutions 05:43 Project Mapping 06:34 Reduced Sequence Strain 06:55 Reduced Timekeeping Strain 07:35 Reduced Self-Control Strain 08:14 Enjoyable Activities 09:09 Summary https://dantepsychology.com/ Socials: https://linktr.ee/DantePsychology I'm Dante, a registered psychologist from Australia.
