I think so much of the journey after getting diagnosed with ADHD has been learning to approach myself with curiosity instead of judgement. Instead of seeing every trait as something I need to “fix”, I’m trying to understand where it comes from and how it actually shows up in my life Lately I’ve been thinking about impulsivity. I always thought being impulsive meant making BIG reckless decisions, but that never really felt like me. But I’m realising mine shows up in much smaller ways like having an idea and needing to do it NOW, struggling to wait once I’ve decided I want something, or somehow turning “I’ll just try one” into seven 😂 Suddenly, a lot of little things I used to blame on a lack of discipline make a lot more sense I guess that’s what I’m learning through all of this: understanding yourself is so much more helpful than constantly judging yourself. If you’re navigating ADHD too, I hope you give yourself space to get curious about your patterns and your brain 🤍 Follow along as I figure out this whole ADHD thing too. #ADHD #AdultADHD #ADHDJourney #ADHDAwareness #Neurodivergent - @luckylisel
