Why are Transitions Hard with ADHD?

from Taking Control: The ADHD Podcast Hosted by TruStory FM

Why are transitions so hard with ADHD? Big ones, little ones, rare ones, daily ones, it seems like changing context from one to the next is like running through three feet of mud when everyone else is floating on air. It might be your big transitions — holidays, vacations, big blocks of time. It might be little transitions — leaving for work, coming home. It might be micro-transitions — going to sleep, waking up. It might even be surprise transitions — transitions you didn't know were coming at all. Whatever the kind of transition you struggle with, you're not alone in that struggle if you're living with ADHD. This week, we're talking all about transitions, and have some tips for you to make your transitions a little bit easier.
