2010 Virtual AD/HD Conference® KEYNOTE SESSION
Changing Your Perspective for Success with AD/HD
With Patricia Quinn, MD
AD/HD is comprised of a varied set of traits, some of which are highly adaptive when applied in the right circumstances. Successful living with AD/HD means learning to manage the downside and take advantage of the upside of AD/HD. By viewing your problems and failures through the lens of a real neurobiological disorder, and seeing these issues in the larger context of strengths and weaknesses instead of blaming yourself, you often gain a sense of relief. Instead of perceiving your problems as unchangeable, you finally can accept who you are and exchange hope for hopelessness and compassion for criticism.
In this session, you'll:
- Learn how challenging your ingrained ways of thinking is essential to changing your self-perception
- Find out why adults with AD/HD are often their own harshest critics
- Discover how to live an "AD/HD-friendly lifestyle"
