  • Summary

  • Julie and Tony delve into the understanding provided by the book 'ADHD 2.0' and compare adult ADHD to a Ferrari engine with bicycle-strength brakes. They discuss learning to work with this energy and attention rather than attempting to control it. The paradoxical nature of ADHD is also explored - with traits often exhibiting as extremes in impulsive behaviors, punctuality, cleanliness, and emotional responses. The dialogue further touches on topics of rejection sensitivity and taking ownership of ADHD as part of their identity. 00:00 Introduction and Welcome 00:33 Behind the Scenes: Podcasting with ADHD 01:50 ADHD 2.0: The Book That Changed Everything 04:19 Understanding the Paradoxical Nature of ADHD 05:10 Strengthening Your Brakes: Strategies for Managing ADHD 10:31 The Contradictory Tendencies of ADHD 11:17 Interpersonal Relationships and ADHD 14:24 Embracing Straightforwardness and Dealing with Abrasiveness 15:17 The Role of a Therapist in Managing ADHD 16:16 Understanding the Impact of ADHD on Relationships 17:26 The Journey of Self-Awareness and Improvement with ADHD 18:32 The Struggles of Dating with ADHD 20:17 The Road to Emotional Maturity with ADHD 21:44 The Paradox of Impulsivity in ADHD 21:59 The Challenges of Controlling ADHD 22:28 The Importance of Self-Acceptance in ADHD 26:16 The Consequences of Impulsive Decisions in ADHD Head to HTTP://love-adhd.com to learn more.
