It comes from the suprachiasmatic nucleus, and we'll get into more detail.
So at the end of the video today, we're actually going to tap in a member of our scientific advisory board, Dr. Michaela Thorderson, who specializes in skilling up people with neurodiversity.
So she specializes in skills building, uses a lot of worksheets and things like that.
So I'm all about like theory and neuroscience and spirituality and stuff.
She's excellent at this stuff.
We're going to be tapping her in at the end of the video because this is where she really specializes in helping people level up some of these skills that are necessary.
She's also going to be holding a social skills workshop for neurodiversity if y'all are interested in that.
So stay tuned at the end of the video.
There'll be some info about that, okay?
Second problem that we have with ADHD is our estimation...
So what does this mean?
So this is basically our brain trying to figure out how long a task will take.
A neurotypical person will be able to make a calculated guess how long a task will take.
But if you have ADHD, the brain's capacity to estimate that time will be deficient in some way.
Now, we kind of already talked about this, but this is where we need to go into more detail because we will see how an inability to estimate time creates a lot of problems.
So remember that when we can't estimate something properly, we could do an overestimate or an underestimate.
And depending on which one we do, this creates a lot of the problems that chances are you struggle with.
So if we overestimate the amount of time it takes.
So what that means is let's say that doing my homework actually takes an hour.
But I tend to overestimate the time.
