Hello! Hi, my name is Alice. I founded The Mini ADHD Coach in August 2020 after I was diagnosed with ADHD at 29..
After years of therapy, questioning, burnout, and career path changes that were chaotic, I finally understood why my struggles with many things.
So I decided that I would share my knowledge to help raise awareness about ADHD and to help the ADHD community thrive.

ADHD Masking: The Truth.
People with ADHD may not feel comfortable around people who do not have the disorder. As a way to avoid being judged or stigmatized by society, people with ADHD may hide their symptoms.
Masking doesn't always develop in adults. Sometimes, it can be learned in childhood. Sometimes parents and other adults would tell us to "pay attention" and "stop fidgeting". Children with ADHD symptoms discover that they are not safe to be themselves, so they use a mask as a survival tool.
Masking can also be caused by the misunderstanding of ADHD. Because we might be labeled as rude or strange, it is difficult to be yourself around people with ADHD. What does ADHD masking look in different situations? These are just a few examples.
Sometimes, when someone speaks, we can't focus on the details or listen enough.
Sometimes hyperactivity can be disguised by pretending calmness. In reality, our minds jump from one thing to the next, so we don't have time to process what's going on at the moment. To fit in at social events, we might try to imitate other people's behaviour. To be able to fit in, we may try to mimic other people's behavior. It can be exhausting to mask our symptoms, and the disadvantages of this practice far outweigh their benefits.
Masking can lead to delayed ADHD diagnosis. It's easy to hide the fact that we don't recognize there is a problem. A psychologist can give us an official diagnosis that will help us get the right treatment plan.
Anxiety and depression are another danger of hiding stress. The stress we keep in our bodies can cause anxiety and depression.
We are not capable of being our true selves and expressing what we really feel. Sometimes we may feel like we are becoming someone else because of our masks.
