Q: How do I do the inner work?

People look at me like I have a 3rd eye when I say this … but ADHD is just one part of you. It’s not an identity and it doesn’t mean everything.

For many of us, it requires a little time with a therapist in order to tease out what parts of our experience are related to ADHD, and what is actually just a part of being human.

Zooming out and looking at the big picture is the “inner work.” And it can be tempting to jump into fix-it mode and start focusing only on the symptoms.

Hope that makes sense.
