In this video, learn the most common adverse reactions, and ways to mitigate each.

Please note I am not a medical professional.
My advice comes from first-hand experience as an ADHD person myself. Using visual progression tracking and goal prioritisation methods, you can develop a useful strategy to override your weaknesses as a person with ADHD.
Step 1: Get to know yourself (How do you normally get things done?) Step 2: Be Kind to yourself (Be realistic and stop pushing yourself so hard) Step 3: Break down End-Goals into small, easier achievements to avoid overwhelm Step 4: Compare your current position to your past position: Where are you now?
So here is an update finally! I hope you all enjoy it! Below you can find a list of the topics that I touch on.

About Me:
I'm Emma McAdam. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and have worked in many settings of growth and change since 2004.. My experience includes juvenile corrections as well as wilderness therapy programs, adventure therapy programs and eating disorder treatment centers. I also work in an outpatient therapy center.
My therapy uses a combination Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Systems Theory. Positive psychology is also used. I also use a bio-psychosocial approach to treat mental illness and other problems we all face. My videos often incorporate ideas from multiple sources. Many of these ideas are based on Acceptance and Commitment therapy, particularly the work of Jason Luoma and Steven Hayes. The section on stress and the mind/body connection is based on the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal Theory), Peter Levine, Somatic Experiencing), Francine Shapiro and Bessel Van der Kolk. The work of the Arbinger Institute is a major source of my understanding of how we can choose the direction of our lives.
The Gospel of Jesus Christ is deeper than that. It orients my personal worldview, sense of security, peace and hope, as well as my love and respect e
