That’s the weird thing about an ADHD brain.
A neuro-typical person’s brain is cool & calm in a calm, everyday situation, and is completely overwhelmed & frazzled in a chaotic situation.
But an ADHD brain thrives on stimulation, and is always desperately trying to find it. So, it’s overwhelmed & frazzled in a calm, everyday situation—and is cool, calm, and perfectly in control in a chaotic situation.
This is why you’ll often find people with ADHD working in emergency services, or crowd-control, or professional sports, the service industry, or show business. Any job where you need to think & act quickly, because the situation is constantly changing!
