Exploring the Nuances of Attention Deficit Disorders
ADD, or Attention Deficit Disorder, and ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, are terms often used interchangeably. It's important to understand that ADD/ADHD can present with or without hyperactivity, leading to different diagnoses such as ADHD-Inattentive Type or ADHD-Hyperactive Type. These distinctions are crucial because they highlight the diverse ways ADD/ADHD can manifest, affecting each individual differently in their executive functioning.
ADD is a neurological disorder that is often inherited and impacts one's ability to sustain focus and control impulses, significantly affecting executive functioning. Despite common misconceptions, ADD is not a matter of laziness or a lack of effort. Modern professional perspectives have evolved to recognize ADD as a unique brain-wiring challenge rather than a moral failing. Those living with it can feel stuck, as if they are facing an insurmountable wall, making it difficult to move forward. This is where coaching comes in—providing the necessary support to navigate these challenges, explore options, and establish accountability.
Symptoms include daydreaming, difficulty staying seated, chronic lateness with assignments, not completing tasks, making careless mistakes, and struggling with sustained attention, all of which impact executive functioning. Other signs include losing items, being easily distracted, forgetfulness, excessive fidgeting, feeling internally restless, talking excessively, and difficulty waiting or taking turns. ADD coaching addresses these issues by helping clients improve organization, tackle procrastination, enhance career performance, manage studying and homework, boost self-esteem, and develop executive functioning skills like prioritizing and focusing. The benefits of ADD coaching are vast, offering increased efficiency, reduced overwhelm, and improved self-esteem, among others. I offer regular check-ins between sessions to help you stay accountable and achieve your goals. Contact me today for a free consultation and start your journey to a more organized and fulfilling life!
