Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

I should have gotten a bigger rack, right?

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

There's all this kind of thing and you want the problem to go away, right?

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

And if you chip away at it, the problem is still going to be there tomorrow.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

And it's going to create all of those problems in your head.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

And you just want it to be done, right?

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

You want it to be gone.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

You want it to not be there because it won't affect you.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

And interestingly enough, it's so interesting.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

I love how you said that start with something that isn't important, right?

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

Start with something that doesn't emotionally activate you.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

Because when you're emotionally activated, restraining your behavior, controlling your behavior is going to be so much harder.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

But when you start with something that's like small stakes, then you're just dealing with the distractibility, impulsivity, a little bit of attention control.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

There's no emotional component.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

And I think this is what I love so much about how you approach things is you bake in a lot of like skills, training, background.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

Right.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

So you want to start like you don't want to learn how to swim in the ocean.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

You want to learn how to swim in a kiddie pool and then work your way up.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

But that conflicts so much with our sense of like, I want this to be done.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

I want to be good at this.

HealthyGamerGG
Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela

Yeah.
