Saturday, July 15, 2023 ADHDers often feel like we 'should' be able to do something because ✨ we've done it before ✨ or that our difficulty with focus/productivity isn't a real disability b/c sometimes we can do it just fine.

GUYS. LADIES. GENTLETHEMS.

THAT IS THE DISABILITY.

The 12 Types of ADHD

ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is often misunderstood as a single condition that only affects children with hyperactivity. However, research—especially from Dr. Daniel Amen—suggests that ADHD has multiple subtypes, each with its own distinct characteristics. Understanding these subtypes can help individuals recognize patterns in their own behavior and find better coping strategies.

1. Classic ADHD

This is the most commonly recognized type of ADHD, featuring classic symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. People with Classic ADHD often struggle with focus, frequently interrupt conversations, and act without thinking.

Symptoms:

Easily distracted

Impulsive behavior

Restlessness and difficulty sitting still

Difficulty following through with tasks

Best Strategies:

Regular exercise to burn off excess energy

Structured routines and schedules

External accountability (coaches, mentors, or apps)

2. Inattentive ADHD (ADD)

Unlike Classic ADHD, individuals with this subtype are not hyperactive. Instead, they struggle with sustaining attention, organization, and memory. They may be seen as "daydreamers" rather than disruptive.

Symptoms:

Difficulty focusing for extended periods

Forgetfulness and losing items frequently

Trouble following multi-step instructions

Often appears lost in thought

Best Strategies:

Using alarms, reminders, and checklists

Breaking large tasks into smaller steps

Brain-stimulating activities like puzzles or reading

3. Over-Focused ADHD

This subtype is characterized by an inability to shift attention, leading to obsessive thoughts, difficulty transitioning between tasks, and an intense focus on specific topics of interest.

Symptoms:

Gets "stuck" on thoughts or activities

Struggles with flexibility in thinking

Overthinks or ruminates on problems

Becomes irritated when routines are disrupted

Best Strategies:

Learning cognitive flexibility techniques

Engaging in mindfulness or meditation

Setting clear boundaries for tasks

4. Temporal Lobe ADHD

This type involves emotional instability, impulsivity, and, in some cases, aggressive or oppositional behavior. It is linked to irregular activity in the temporal lobes of the brain, which govern memory and emotional regulation.

Symptoms:

Sudden mood swings

Angry outbursts or irritability

Poor memory recall

Sensitivity to criticism

Best Strategies:

Therapy or counseling to improve emotional regulation

Journaling to process emotions

Anger management techniques

5. Limbic ADHD

People with Limbic ADHD often experience chronic low energy, sadness, and a lack of motivation. It overlaps with depression but is uniquely tied to ADHD-related executive function issues.

Symptoms:

Chronic feelings of sadness

Low motivation and energy levels

Negative self-talk

Difficulty experiencing joy

Best Strategies:

Regular exercise and sunlight exposure

Engaging in hobbies and social activities

Addressing negative self-perception through therapy

6. Ring of Fire ADHD

This is an intense, emotionally-driven type of ADHD where individuals experience extreme mood fluctuations, anxiety, and sensory overload.

Symptoms:

Intense emotional reactions

Sensory sensitivity (lights, sounds, textures)

Racing thoughts and constant internal dialogue

Overwhelmed by too much stimulation

Best Strategies:

Reducing environmental stressors

Practicing deep breathing and relaxation techniques

Establishing structured downtime

7. Anxious ADHD

As the name suggests, this subtype is marked by excessive worry, nervousness, and physical symptoms of anxiety. People with Anxious ADHD tend to overanalyze situations and fear making mistakes.

Symptoms:

Overthinking and excessive worry

Avoidance of social situations due to fear of judgment

Physical symptoms like headaches or stomach aches

Difficulty sleeping due to racing thoughts

Best Strategies:

Practicing self-compassion and challenging negative thoughts

Engaging in relaxation techniques like yoga or deep breathing

Avoiding caffeine and other stimulants

8. Depressed ADHD

This type combines ADHD symptoms with persistent feelings of sadness, guilt, and low self-worth. Individuals may struggle with motivation and often feel overwhelmed by daily life.

Symptoms:

Chronic low mood

Loss of interest in activities

Fatigue and sleep disturbances

Feelings of worthlessness

Best Strategies:

Therapy or counseling for mood regulation

Regular physical activity to boost dopamine levels

Setting small, achievable goals

9. Oppositional Defiant ADHD

This subtype is characterized by defiance, resistance to authority, and difficulty accepting rules. It is common in children and adolescents but can persist into adulthood.

Symptoms:

Frequently arguing with authority figures

Difficulty accepting criticism

Intense need for control

Impulsivity leading to conflict

Best Strategies:

Practicing self-awareness and self-control techniques

Using logic-based decision-making frameworks

Seeking mentorship or coaching

10. Combination ADHD

A mix of inattentive and hyperactive-impulsive traits, making it one of the most complex forms of ADHD.

Symptoms:

Alternates between restlessness and inattention

Impulsivity combined with forgetfulness

Struggles with both organization and sitting still

Can hyperfocus on some tasks but ignore others

Best Strategies:

Structured time management techniques

Medication or therapy for balancing symptoms

Finding work and hobbies that align with natural energy cycles

11. Sluggish Cognitive Tempo (SCT)

A controversial but increasingly recognized ADHD subtype, SCT involves slow mental processing, brain fog, and difficulty keeping up with conversations.

Symptoms:

Slow response times in conversations

Trouble processing information quickly

Low motivation and energy

Often lost in thought

Best Strategies:

Using visual and audio reminders

Stimulant therapy (if prescribed)

Engaging in stimulating and interactive activities

12. High-Energy ADHD

This is a subtype where individuals have extreme levels of energy, making them highly productive but also prone to burnout and exhaustion.

Symptoms:

High energy but inconsistent focus

Impulsiveness leading to rapid decision-making

Difficulty winding down

Jumping from one project to another

Best Strategies:

Practicing work-life balance

Setting realistic goals

Using physical outlets for excess energy

Final Thoughts

Understanding the different types of ADHD can provide clarity and guidance for those who struggle with focus, impulsivity, and emotional regulation. Whether you recognize yourself in one category or several, the key is finding tailored strategies that work for your unique brain chemistry.

What is ADHD?

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a chronic neurodevelopmental disorder that affects children and adults. This disorder is identified by symptoms such as trouble paying attention, impulsive behavior, and hyperactivity, which can manifest itself in varying degrees and combinations in individuals. ADHD is believed to originate from a combination of genetic and environmental factors, and is often diagnosed in childhood. While medication and behavioral therapy can help manage the symptoms, there is no known cure for ADHD. Understanding the complexity of this disorder is essential for clinicians to provide effective treatment and support for individuals diagnosed with ADHD.

ADHD AWARENESS QUOTE 1 OF 3 Friday, October 21, 2022

"Stating the obvious (to those who have it), 'Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder' is a horrible name.

We don't have an attention 'deficit,' we have unregulated attention.

I feel we need to add '&' to it to emphasize the fact our unregulated attention and the hyperactivity are separate issues.

So, I believe we should change the name to 'Unregulated Attention & Hyperactivity Disorder' (UAHD)

Health Literacy Among Children With Special Health Care Needs

Children with special health care needs (CSHCN) often require more services than other children their age, and this can be expensive. To better understand how parental health literacy affects the care of CSHCN, a research team conducted a review of 13 studies from 1998 to 2014.  further assessment of the relationship between health literacy and health care utilization and cost, and (4) assessment of parental/caregiver health literacy in the inpatient care setting.
