S2 E7 - ADHD perfectionism: how masking creates it.

In this episode we tackle something many ADHD people struggle with which is that hiding-to-nothing, perfectionism. I wondered my whole life where my perfectionism came from and it was until I received my diagnosis that I started to understand a bit more. I mention Stephen Guise's book How to Be an Imperfectionist -- you can find it on Amazon. In this episode: The ways that perfectionism manifests itself. The role that rejection sensitive dysphoria plays in perfectionism. How emotional dysregulation triggers the perfectionist. Why perfectionism is an inevitable consequence of masking. What it feels like to become a "recovering perfectionist."
