11 Promises from a Manager: a 🧵

1. We’ll have a weekly 1:1. I’ll never cancel this meeting, but you can cancel it whenever you like. It’s your time.

@mrslouiseharris @jessejanderson Yes! And TikTok (ADHD TikTok and Motivation TikTok) is so good too! 😅❤️

@jessejanderson Same 😅and ❤️

@jessejanderson We ADHDers think about time as “Now” or “Not Now”. If I have an important appointment and don’t take action “Go Now” then I can forget about it entirely or easily lose track of time.

@StephanFrost Simplify routines and stay consistent to give the organizational structure that we lack by default. Teach early that everything has its one place - shoes, keys, backpacks, etc. Avoid yelling (tune you out), but light touch and eye contact to focus the brain on what you’re saying

[ADHD Study @StudyAdhd]

@StephanFrost Boring tasks are extremely challenging, but we can hyperfocus and think outside the box in amazing ways when interested in something. There are a ton of brilliant inventors and doers that have ADHD. Read about the brain differences and challenges, but embrace the gifts, too.

@at_lough @ADHDdesigner Check out telehealth options to get assessed by drs that specialize in ADHD—no worries about being dismissed/blown off, lower cost, all done online / remote meetings. Ironically our ADHD often prevents us from getting diagnosed because of the hassle to get diagnosed.

[ADHD Study @StudyAdhd]

@natabone @jessejanderson Yes! Inattentive ADHD presents so differently than hyperactive ADHD and many professionals have not studied it to understand the difference. Hyperactivity is in your face so gets the attention! Encourage your family member to study up on ADHD in Women and Innattentive ADHD 😁

[ADHD Study @StudyAdhd]

@mangh_oe @emilycoote A common situation for a lot of us! There are many telehealth services that specialize in ADHD. They remove barriers — worries about talking to the wrong doctor/being dismissed, lower cost, accessible online from home vs. taking off time from work, etc.

[ADHD Study @StudyAdhd]

@krschltz1 Yes, facts! Inattentive ADHD (type women typically have) often is overlooked by doctors and educators. That needs to change. Women in particular are really good at masking until the stress of increased responsibility exacerbates symptoms to the breaking point.

[ADHD Study @StudyAdhd]

@ladamenoire @rachaelrox85 @jessejanderson Yes! And it can be masked for a long time. ADHD (especially in women) often gets diagnosed later in life after getting married or having children, when the stress of increased responsibility exacerbates symptoms to the breaking point, and the person finally seeks help.

@natabone @jessejanderson “Women with the disorder tend to be less hyperactive and impulsive, more disorganized, scattered, forgetful, and introverted. “They’ve alternately been anxious or depressed for years,” “It’s this sense of not being able to hold everything together.”
