I hate to say it, but a lot of adults with AD/HD have an attitude problem. Many of us are negative thinkers with low self-esteem.
It’s understandable; life with AD/HD can have us feeling bad for being so “different” from everyone else. And we feel worse when we try to improve our lives using the wrong systems.
Mainstream advice doesn’t account for the unique wiring of AD/HD brains, and when this advice fails, we feel like we’ve failed. It chips away at our self-esteem.
