What’s the most helpful thing you’ve learned about ADHD?
For me, it’s about motivation.

Neurotypicals are (primarily) motivated by:
• importance
• rewards
• consequences

ADHDers are (primarily) motivated by:
• interest
• creativity/novelty
• challenge
• urgency

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine.

Me years ago: How do people not know the vhs tape in the box is not rewound purely by weight distribution.

Me years later: I think I'm autistic.

Just learned about Justice Sensitivity in ADHD and I definitely think I have it 🙃 www.additudemag.com/why-am-i-so-...
Why Am I So Sensitive? Why ADHD Brains Can’t Just Ignore Unfairness
Do you become overwhelmed or enraged by life’s unfairness and attacks on social justice? You may be experiencing the impact of a little-known ADHD trait called justice sensitivity.

Autistic sensory sensitivities are usually more than 'just being uncomfortable.' Sensory issues, such as loud noises, can be physically painful, can trigger automatic behavioural responses, can impact executive function, and/or have serious emotional impacts.

Fell down a memory rabbit hole last night recalling clapping games I played with my friends in primary: Stella Ella Ola, Miss Susie had a Steamboat, Down by the Rollercoaster... I wonder if kids still play those? 🤔👵
