Please support CADDAC caddac.ca ADHD people have a problem with response inhibition. Due to this problem with response inhibition the ADHD person is impulsive even if the impulsivity is not in his long term best interest. ADHD people have a sense of restlessness, either motor hyperactivity, or a restlessness of their mind ADHD has a problem with emotional impulsivity and the inability to inhibit their emotions to translate into instant action. Thus just being ADHD means you have 4 out of 8 symptoms of ODD, and thus all ADHD people are sub-clinically ADHD. The emotional impulsivity leads to problems making friends and is the cause of many divorces and relationship problems.

On “ADHD Accommodations Guide”

Inattentiveness is only a very small part of ADHD (and the name ADHD itself is very outdated and doesn't capture at all what this is about). It's more common in children to be inattentiveness (ADHD-PI) but goes away with adulthood. But ADHD is also a spectrum, so some people have it worse in X but very mild (or not at all) in Y. For me it's more emotional restless-ness, overthinking (esp. what people think about me and self-criticism), oversharing of whatever I am currently focused on (like writing this comment), being late because I constantly forget to account for something obvious like walking time, and a strong "mental barrier" of doing things that I don't want to do, or don't have conse…
