ADHD and Emotions: Triggers for Emotional Self-regulation

It’s ADHD Awareness Month. The theme is “ADHD: Understanding A Shared Experience.” According to Dr. Russell Barkley, emotional self-regulation is a core component of ADHD. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, ADHD and attention coach Jeff Copper (www.digcoaching.com) shares a highly impassioned conversation with Stacey who expresses her deepest emotions, her anger, her passion. This powerful experience starts off relatively low and then escalates to a crescendo of emotion so we can almost feel the tension in her body. If you’ve ever witnessed the same phenomenon, felt that rush of adrenaline or that flooding feeling in the pit of your stomach, listen how Stacey learned to use her automatic emotional responses as triggers to pause and down-regulate the emotional frenzy.Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self-help Internet radio shows focusing on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and attention deficit disorder (ADD), including managing symptoms of attention deficit disorder, adults with ADD, or adults who have children with ADHD.Attention Talk Radio, hosted by attention coach Jeff Copper, is designed to help adults and children (particularly those diagnosed with or impacted by attention deficit disorder or its symptoms) in life or business who are stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated.
