Making Dopamine Work For You

About
My fundamental rule in understanding psychology is that “people have to learn to live in the world”. Whether it’s a difficult childhood or a neurodiverse brain, people learn to compensate and work around their challenges. Unfortunately for most people with ADHD, when you live in a world defined by neurotypical norms everything you learn about productivity doesn’t make sense for your brain. ADHD brains have different incentive structures to neurotypical brains, and this leaves people with ADHD feeling frustrated, exhausted and ashamed when trying to force their brain into being neurotypical.If you are like so many of my clients who have learned to compensate for your ADHD by using anxiety, avoidance, last minute panic, deprivation of enjoyable activities, punishment, or living a life on the verge of burnout, you aren’t just making your life unnecessarily miserable, you are fundamentally misunderstanding what motivates an ADHD brain – dopamine.
