ADHD

🌊 The ADHD Iceberg 🌊

This visual captures the depth of what ADHD really is. While many think ADHD just means trouble focusing or fidgeting, the reality below the surface can be much more complex. From sensory issues and anxiety to relationship struggles and executive dysfunction, these are challenges that many with ADHD face daily but often go unnoticed.

Understanding these hidden layers is crucial—not just for those who have ADHD but for everyone around them. Awareness and empathy can make a huge difference in supporting others, helping us to build more inclusive spaces where people feel seen and understood.

It's such a individual thing really. Anyone with ADHD will have different symptoms. I always question, why? If we can explore & understand the environment that we grew up in then I believe we can learn to work with  these 'symptoms'

My understanding is based around the work of Gabor Maté

“ADHD is not an inherited disease; it is a response to stress. It is rooted in the early environment. The child is absorbing stresses that are there in the parenting environment, which is not the parent’s fault. Parents are doing their best. But what the child picks up is that the world is not safe, so tuning out becomes a way of coping.” Gabor Maté
