How ADHD Shapes Friendships
Manage episode 516203178 series 3653061
You know you have ADHD, but do you know how it shows up in your social life? Your attempts to make and keep friends are affected by ADHD behaviors that once recognized, might be swapped out for actions that help instead of hinder.
Do you recognize yourself as exhibiting any of the common ADHD traits mentioned in this episode, including:
• forgetting dates, showing up late, not responding
• poor conversation etiquette: tangents, interruptions, and one-upmanship
• ruining game night
• gift stress, overthinking, and last-minute scrambles
• emotional dysregulation
• strengths such as loyalty, openness, and fun
