This time we're having what will probably be the first of a few bites at the challenge of explaining ADHD to neurotypical people. We're talking about strategies for navigating conversations about ADHD, including the use of metaphors to illustrate some of our traits and experiences.
In the episode, we make reference to the excellent ADHD 2.0 book and, as promised, you can find a copy of it here.
In this episode:
- Some of the reasons why people are curious about ADHD.
- How to narrow down the conversation to a manageable size.
- Using analogies and metaphors to make explanations of ADHD traits more accessible.
- Tackling questions about being undiagnosed yet appearing "normal".
