PRINCE GEORGE— Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a developmental disorder that causes inattention, hyperactivity, impulsivity and emotional dysregulation but contrary to popular belief its not because their brains can’t focus.
Judy Mitchell of JWM Counselling does ADHD life coaching and was also recently diagnosed. Her advice when it comes to combating ADHD is too break up tasks into bite sized components.
“If they’re going, I need to clean my house. No, you don’t,” says Judy Mitchell. “You need to clean your bathroom sink. That’s where you can start. If you need to do the dishes, you’ve got two days worth of dishes, do the forks. Because if we can get it started with something small, we can keep going.
