Again, one of the questions I ask every patient is, look back over your entire life, try to keep all the memories you can because this has to be lifelong.
If you've been able to get engaged and stay engaged with literally any task of your life, have you ever found anything you couldn't do?
Like the listeners sort of tell them, they don't think back over their lives.
Thus far, everybody I've asked that question to who has an ADHD nervous system was saying, you know, no, if I can ever get engaged and stick with it, I've never found anything I couldn't do.
That shoots executive function deficit theory right out the window.
People with ADHD are not deficit.
They can do anything if, if the situation's right.
And that's what rejection sensitivity is, is something outside.
Now, something they perceive as being a threat, a trigger.
Now, if somebody's going to withdraw their love or approval or respect, they're hardwired, in my belief, to have a catastrophic reaction, which is the groundwork is already laid from having hundreds of thousands of
objections, corrections, demands that you change, I don't want you the way you are.
And also, despite having very high IQs, struggling with school, struggling with jobs, knowing from those times when you do get engaged that your brain is capable of remarkable things if you can get access to them.
That's the problem with ADHD is the traditional ways that everybody's taught.
that neurotypical people get engaged and get motivated don't work at all for people with ADHD.
Neurotypical people use importance and rewards.
What do I get out of this?
Ask somebody with ADHD.
Go back over your entire life.
Dredge up all the memories you can.
