Math and reading are likely no walk in the park, either. And it all traces back to executive functioning. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

My deep-seated anxiety of annoying others is at the core of my low self-esteem. I can read into anything and everything. A one-word e-mail or text? “They must be pissed at me.” People whispering just out of earshot? “They must be talking about me.” The constant voice in my head: “What did I do now?”
These days, it’s just quite entertaining when I’m struggling with my concentration (let’s put it like that - aka being disruptive) and the teacher has no idea what to do... they know I have ADHD, but do they confront it, send me out, talk to me quietly?
When I was younger (and undiagnosed), different teachers took different approaches, but I was sent out a lot, put on report, separated from the rest of the class, told to “be quiet, “sit down”, or “concentrate” and even “that’s not normal, you’re scaring me”...
The thing is, I know when I’m annoying others - trust me I’ve got a super sixth sense for it! I’m not trying to disrupt the lesson, I seriously can’t help it, and I don’t know how to deal with all the stuff going on in my head! I’d say (for me at least) the best thing for teachers or parents to do, is bring the work back into sight. What I mean by that is, instead of saying “concentrate”, say “how are you doing with that” - but not in a patronising way!
Allowing for different learning styles is also important - if your child/ you / someone with ADHD works better with music, what is the harm in allowing them to wear headphones when doing classwork?
What do others think? What is the best way for someone to help you / your child concentrate, without them annoying you, or treating you like you’re different from the others?

we all know an excessive apology giver, and if you don't, you're probably that person in your friend group haha. you obviously need to apologise sometimes, if you've done something bad or hurtful. being able to give someone an heartfelt apology is a good skill. but some people over-apologise. they apologise for things not in their control, things that are clearly not their fault. they apologise for being sensitive, for someone else bumping into them, they apologise for apologising. but over apologising can be troublesome, saying sorry too much can trivialize the act of apology, making the important ones carry less weight. many things can lead to over apologising. a high level of agreeableness, a difficult upbringing, a past of emotional abuse, a naturally high level of compassion for others, can all lead to constantly saying sorry. but always remember, you do not have to apologise for your existence. one way to stop saying sorry so much is replacing the "sorry" with "thank you". it makes it so that you seem more thankful, and assured, rather than sounding insecure, unsure, or undeserving. being able to assert yourself, and owning your right to make your way in the world is vital. you don't have to apologise for simply being, you don't have to apologise for having flaws. •

Starting a "Hard to Swallow Pills" series! First prescription: Rejection-Sensitive Dysphoria
.
“RSD creates extreme emotional pain triggered by the perception—not necessarily reality— that one has been rejected, teased, or criticized by important people in their life. Or a sense of failing to meet their own high standards or others’ expectations.”
Consistency would be nice ❤️
